CONSUMER PROTECTION BCBS has argued in favor of creating a risk pool into which V&lft Otlwireless it would contribute the largest share, but other health insurers in the state would be required to participate. BCBS accounts for about 70 percent of health care coverage in the state. BCBS is also asking for changes in how its *i rates are approved.

Cox argues that the various iterations of the bills being pro­ Hurry, sale ends Monday. posed do not address his major concerns. He said he is especially concerned that his office and the governor's office, through the insurance commissioner, would have less say over rate increases. "Every single version allows them to charge the sick and elderly more. Right now, they are required to charge everyone in the same market the same," Cox said. He said the original legislation took his office and the insurance commissioner completely out. "The new mantra is that we are still in the picture, but we're really not," he said. "We couldn't ask for a hearing until they exceeded 80 percent (rate increase). Now my office is able to intervene foran y rate hike." State Rep. Marc Corriveau, D-NorthviUe, said he has been asked by House Speaker Andy Dillon, D-Redford, to head a joint House-Senate committee to reach a compromise between the two chambers. He emphasized that the current version is not his bill, but a reworking of House and Senate bills. \\mm "We have no final consensus.

Proud to be your home: Give Anna design a close look

Sturdy brick trim, along with durable lap siding, project a sense of permanence to the 2,576-square-fbot Anna (337-070). This is a classic beauty that any growing family would be proud to call home. The handsome exterior is jitst a prelude to the high­ Landmark ly functional interior design. A covered front porch, welcoming to your guests, will be a Designs favorite spot to spend a summer evening. The long entry leads directly into a big family room brightened by multiple skylights. This centrally located room is the main gathering place in the Anna and has access to the back deck. To the left of the entry is a nice cozy living room. Here, with a WTO substantial fireplace to keep things warm, entertaining friends in style will be effortless. Built-in shelves are over the fireplace with a wood box underneath. The isolated master suite has a spacious sleeping area and a secluded patio for privacy while enjoying the sun. The master suite also has a built-in entertainment center, huge walk-in closet and its own skylit bathroom equipped with a spa and twin basins. The walk-through kitchen is situated where the cooks in the household will admire the convenience. There are more skylights here, along with two eating bars and all the built-in appliances. The kitchen, for easy serving, is between the raised breakfast nook and the front dining room. The secondary bedrooms are both quite large, with a full bath­ room between. These bedrooms have plenty of closet space and one or the other could easily be converted into guest accommo­ dations, sewing roorn or den.' An office, with private entrance, is located at the front of the Anna. It has built-in shelves and a closet, but still leaves enough room for a PC, chairs, cabinets, etc. A skylit utility room com­ pletes the main part of the floor plan. There is a big sink here and room for. a freezer. The attached two-car garage is fitted with a liberal shop area. For extra storage, the Anna offers an additional 418 square feet ANNA(337-070J of attic space.
