Have they added more hospitals? Have they sought to increase medical staffing? So based on that, how can you expect the quality of medical care to get better or even remain the same for the majority of Americans?

Because the demand for hospitals and medical care will be reduced. At the moment, people who can't afford health care simply ignore obvious problems until they become unbearable, and then go to an emergency room— at which point, they're often told they have a significant problem requiring extensive treatment that would have been simple and easy to deal with if they had sought treatment when the symptoms first appeared.

Giving people comprehensive health care means more people getting problems dealt with when they're small and easy, or even avoiding them entirely through preventative measures, and thus reduce the need for more expensive and extensive interventions later.

Keep in mind, of course, this assumes that the ACA will actually provide comprehensive health care to millions of people, which it was never intended to do.
