Looks as though there are two remaining stumbling blocks, abortion restrictions and whether the 'Exchanges' will be on a federal or a state level.

http://www.usatoday.com/news/washington ... rats_N.htmWASHINGTON — President Obama agreed Thursday to soften a proposed tax on high-cost insurance plans, but work continues on several remaining sticking points in the health care legislation — including the thorny issue of abortion.
The agreement on the controversial tax, reached with the nation's largest labor unions after marathon negotiating sessions at the White House, partly answered how lawmakers will pay for billions of dollars in subsidies that will help millions of uninsured Americans afford coverage.
The tax is just one in a long list of issues lawmakers must address as they reconcile the health care bills passed late last year by the Senate and House of Representatives.
