Here is the link to H. 470 as it passed the Senate:

Although there is no formal conference committee yet appointed negotiations between the House and Senate are taking place. It’s possible that the House could vote on the Senate-passed version “with further proposals of amendment” and return it to the Senate for its approval. My guess is if the talks are productive that’s what will happen. We’re still waiting. But I’d suggest you read the bill as the final version will probably not differ much from what has already passed both chambers.
H. 590, foreclosure mediation, is in conference and the House has drafted a few minor changes to the Senate’s version, which I expect the Senate conferees will adopt. Once that conference report is signed it will go to both chambers for action. Since it’s a House bill the Senate must approve the report first. Then final action by the House will send the bill to the governor for signature. Stay tuned.
