I'll provide one: http://help.senate.gov/BAI09A84_xml.pdf

In addition, the House's mirror bill is at: http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/z?c111:H.R.3200:

Got a lot of reading to do on the Senate bill, but the first few pages state pre-existing conditions are out, companies selling health insurance must take all comers, and health insurance companies must provide specific cost/payment information to the Secretary of Health and Human Services who will verify that, depending on the "profit" a rebate will be provided to customers.

It will be interesting to see how much this bill will actually jack up health insurance costs or cause several companies to stop selling health insurance due to federal interference and mandatory rebating based on federal review/certification.

Again, got a lot of reading to do. I wonder if/which any congressperson will do so as well.
