Key Senator Says He Will Alter Health Proposal - NYTimes.com

Baucus says he will make subsidies more generous adding $28 bn to the ten yr cost of his bill. Doesnt seem like it will be enough. He plans to bring down the maximum premium paid by the highest income group eligible for subsidy (400% of FPL) to 12% o...f gross income. This is on par with other bills. Notably, though, even that level would be higher than other Senators are calling for (incl Snowe and Bingaman, members of the Gang of Six) and would, in fact be rather high especially since they are all talking about plans taht would only cover 70% of medical costs.Key Senator Says He Will Alter Health Proposal - NYTimes.com
