Barack Obama did not explicitly state that he would cut 500 billion dollars from Medicare during his presidency. This claim was made by opponents of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in 2012, suggesting that the law would lead to reductions in Medicare spending. However, the ACA aimed to slow down the growth of Medicare spending, not cut it by $500 billion.
These are Obama's own words: We are spending a lot of money subsidizing the insurance companies around something called Medicare Advantage, a program that gives them subsidies to accept Medicare recipients but doesn't necessarily make people on Medicare healthier. And if we eliminate that and other programs, we can potentially save $200 billion out of the health care system that we're currently spending.
