Right now that's unfounded speculation.
Some analysts predict it will increase costs, some predict it will decrease costs, and others, including the CBO, don't think it will have an impact on costs one way or the other.
The only thing that is certain at this point is how much healthcare cost have been rising every year and something had to be done before it was too late.
The Republicans had an unobstructed 8 years under Bush to reform healthcare if they had wanted to.
Obviously that wasn't/isn't their priority.
