Senate Finance Chairman Max Baucus and ranking Republican Chuck Grassley just released the second installment of their health care policy options—this one on covering all Americans. Yes, the public plan is part of the mix, but it takes a few different possible forms. An individual purchase requirement or mandate is also in there. So are insurance market reforms and a standard benefit package that human beings can actually understand is in there. We haven't read through the whole document yet but wanted to bring it to your attention. Please note that Baucus and Grassley aren't endorsing everything that's in the document, but they are setting parameters for a serious and wide-ranging discussion.

Tomorrow, the Senate Finance Committee will host a roundtable discussion on financing comprehensive health care reform. As always you can follow our coverage of the event on Twitter (tag: #SenFin).
