If anything, additions such as max out of pocket and increased coverage for preventative care should have reduced such costs. Feel free to provide a single shred of evidence otherwise.
I can tell you total household spending on healthcare accounted for an average of 29.6% of healthcare spending in the decade before the ACA went into effect; 28% since.
