H.R. 3478--A bill to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to modify
rules relating to health savings accounts, to provide payments for
a health savings account and for a high deductible health plan
instead of entitlement to benefits under Medicare, Medicaid, and
SCHIP, to give more control and coverage to patients, to lower
health care costs through increased price transparency, and to
require immigrants to have a health savings account and high
deductible health coverage at time of admission; to the Committee
on Ways and Means, and in addition to the Committees on Energy and
Commerce, and the Judiciary, for a period to be subsequently
