Is there a handy guide to all those health care reform bills out there?

I think I heard that there are 4 drafts out there and 1 that we haven't even seen yet.

Is there a a blog or a chart somewhere?

Thanks.

5. I just saw something there I have not heard about

out of Max Baucus' committee-a temporary buy in to Medicare for the pre-medicare population. May not make it into the bill but why has this not floated out there as a trial balloon? The public would go wild for it.

4. It really doesn't make any difference

The final bill going into Conference will be the secrete one that comes out of Max Baucus's Committee in the Senate and the one that Nancy Pelosi crafts from parts of each of the House bills. There is also still a vote out there the substitute an old Single Payer bill for everything in the House at this time.
