Congress is currently considering legislation to reform the nation’s health insurance system. Attached is a detailed summary comparing the major reform bills in the House and Senate. The three committees of jurisdiction over health care in the House have all reported a bill. House leaders are expected to bring that legislation to the floor in the Fall. In the Senate, one of two committees with jurisdiction have reported legislation (Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions). The other panel, Committee on Finance, has yet to finalize its proposal.
