Health Care Bill May Loose Public Option in Senate

Link

According to the article, the Senate is in negotiations that may replace the public health care option with non-profit plans. Since this was the main concern with the bill, it will be interesting to see how this turns out. What effect this will have on the cost, how much the government will be involved in these non-profits, and how effective they could actually be will be very important questions to ask.

Even if it this change is accepted by the Senate, the House will still of course have to accept it as well. As the current Bill is being blocked by the Blue Dogs, a more conservative option might actually be accepted there too.
