The birth control isn’t even a health issue, but only a way for women who don’t want to get pregnant, after enjoying (or not) lovemaking.
Healthcare insurance SHOULD NOT pay for ANY contraceptive item. Any woman can buy the stuff in a pharmacy, and the pills are not that expensive. A set of contraceptive pills cost between $10 (the price of two Big Mac) and maximum $50$ a month, depending on the brand.
“Healthcare insurance SHOULD NOT pay for ANY contraceptive item”
I agree. The more items that are added to one’s insurance plan, the higher the premium costs for everyone.
Despite the liberal argument, these items are not medically necessary.
Plain and simple, as an another example, if an insurance policy doesn’t cover Durable Medical Equipment, then unfortunately a wheelchair won’t be covered when it’s needed. I understand that folks can be angry when they complain that their insurance won’t pay for a wheelchair, but insurance, like anything else, is you get what you pay for. When your policy doesn’t cover something, that’s less money you’ve been paying all along in premiums.
