As you know, the Senate passed its final bill on December 24th by 60 to 39 votes, just sufficient to overcome the Republican filibuster. Now the House and Senate leadership are working on a combined bill, designed to pass both houses of Congress, ideally in time for the President’s State of the Union Address at the end of January or beginning of February. But because there is even less “margin for error” in getting the final bill passed in the Senate, the final draft is more likely to reflect the Senate bill than the House one. There are several sources for comparing the final Senate and House bills. Here are two sources, one at a high level and the other with a lot of detail:

• Comparison in the Washington Post (note: you may find it easier to download the PDF file than tab through the comparison on the web page): (click here)
• Kaiser Family Foundation Comparison of just the Medicare provisions in the two bills (use the first link on the page): (click here)
• Kaiser Family Foundation Comparison (available as a very detailed PDF file, or you can check off only the provisions that you are interested in comparing and get a web page summary): (click here)
