This Just In: 
Health insurance fight not over yet
Updated: Sunday, March 10 2013, 05:02 PM EDT
LANSING, Mich. (NEWSCHANNEL 3) - The fight over a new health insurance market in Michigan is far from being over.
The Republican-led State House recently approved a $31 million grant for the online exchange.
But Senate Republicans, who got behind the state-run marketplace in 2011, are hesitating at a plan to instead partner with the federal government.
However, the Senate's GOP leader says he's not rushing into anything just yet.
The website and accompanying call center are supposed to make it easier for people to shop for insurance they must have in 2014 under the federal health care overhaul.
