CO-OPs, basically community organizing insurance companies, I expect for friends of the Dear Leader:

The Chairman‘s Mark authorizes $6 billion in funding the Consumer Operated and Oriented Plan (CO-OP) program to foster the creation of non-profit, member-run health insurance companies that serve individuals in one or more states. CO-OP grantees would compete in the reformed individual and small group insurance markets.

Federal funds would be distributed as loans and grants. Loans would be provided to assist with start-up costs, and grants would be provided to meet state solvency requirements.

For those who might be reading the bill without the companion modifications, the following has been stricken from the bill:

Chairman’s Mark
The Chairman‘s Mark would make prescription drugs a mandatory benefit for the categorically and medically needy, effective January 1, 2014.
