The goal of the health care reform was not to increase the fund for the Medicare program, but rather to address the issue of the rising cost of health care and to provide affordable health coverage for more Americans, including children and those who were previously uninsured. While the Affordable Care Act did make some changes to the Medicare program, such as reducing some payments to providers, the overall goal was not to increase funding for the program.
