Senate panel health bill aims to address GOP concerns
Senate Finance Committee chair Max Baucus proposes a broad health reform framework to block illegal immigrants from subsidized insurance, curb malpractice suits, and ban federal abortion subsidies. The plan envisions universal coverage by 2013 with tax credits, major cost cuts, and a mandate that could affect about 4 million uninsured. Critics warn the mandate may exceed middle class means, likening it to a tax increase. The House plans would offer larger credits but cost over $1 trillion in a decade, while negotiators seek an $880 billion figure to gain bipartisan backing. Census data show most uninsured earn under 300 percent of poverty, with many lacking employer coverage or affordability.
