Side-by-Side Tool Compares Key Bills to Expand Coverage Through
Medicare-for-all and Other Public Plan Options

renewed attention on legislation that would expand coverage and moderate
costs, including a national Medicare-for-all plan and options to buy into

will update the tool to include other bills after they are introduced in the
116th Congress.
Filling the need for trusted information on
national health issues, the Kaiser Family Foundation is a
nonprofit organization based in San Francisco, California.
