Kaiser Health News staff writer Julie Appleby reports on the details of the House bill's abortion restrictions. "The House-passed health bill bars insurers from selling policies that cover abortion to anyone who gets a federal subsidy.

Based on some states' experiences, it's unlikely insurers would sell such coverage" (11/10). Read entire story.
