According to the article, this translates to 1.3 million people who are uninsured, and 459,000 state residents with overpriced individual insurance policies who get "guaranteed coverage for less" on a national insurance exchange.
Michigan's health insurance market has been particularly difficult to navigate in recent years, as the economic downturn in the US has created an environment of joblessness and created a large population of uninsured state residents.
The bill itself still faces a lot of criticism - from Republicans who claim it will cost too much, to Democrats worried about cuts to Medicare.
However, whether it's Michigan health insurance, or a nationwide plan for all Americans, it appears that some form of new health care will emerge from the Senate by the end of this year. And that's good news to the 47 million Americans who currently cannot afford coverage for themselves or their families.
