There are four competing Democratic approaches to increasing government control over health care:

*[[Ted Kennedy]]
*[[Tom Daschle]]
*[[Max Baucus]]
*[[Barack Obama]]

Each are summarized below.

== Ted Kennedy's Plan ==

Ted Kennedy has withheld details of his plan from the public, perhaps to avoid a build-up of criticism about it. But his staff has met with interest groups in 2008 and it is expected that Kennedy's plan will be similar to the [[Massachusetts Plan]]. Kennedy's plan will likely include taxpayer-funded abortion by requiring that insurance carriers cover abortion, and requiring or using the tax incentives and penalties to include participation by taxpayers.

== Tom Daschle's Plan ==


== Max Baucus's Plan ==


== Barack Obama's Plan ==

Barack Obama did not support universal coverage during the campaign, to contrast his approach with that of [[Hillary Clinton]]. It is doubtful that this issue is a priority for him in 2009.
