Health insurance is required to cover birth control with no copays

[Zack M]

It shouldn't be a win or lose for the government. Government should have no role in reproduction

Its also about wellness and preventative care. Birth control fits under that. Insurance company are coming around to this more proactive care than reactive care.

Fat people cost insurance companies billions each year.

Let's require insurance companies to provide them with healthy food. Hey guys, it's cheaper than the alternative!!

Fucking RETARRAB.

Discounts for visiting the gym. Done and DONE.

Nice, we should grab a beer sometime, no homo

 

[HELP ME! 123]

good

maybe the prisons wont be as overpopulated in 20 years

 

[kethander]

It is, but what proof do you have that this will reduce births?

 

[SpockFan]

It's probably located near the evidence that says red light cameras reduce traffic deaths.

 

[bucktoui]

If anything, I'd assume it would increase the nuraber of incurable STRAB

lol

 

[New Boots & ?]

they don't, this is for non-reproduction

 

[Tanashis]

Why is my premium rising?

Ohhhh.. The government stepped in again.

 

[♣ALT]

While we're at it, maybe my car insurance company should be forced to pay my gas.

This won't happen. But insurance companies are coming around to providing wellness programs to attract healthy lifestyles. It does cost them more for this, but at the end of the day, this reduces medical cost for them down the road.

It's a win for the government. Less unplanned birth = less medicare cost + less food stamp enrollees + less earn income tax filers + less high school drop outs.

This isn't about government's role in reproduction but more about giving people/employees this option they they have demanded that has been a roadblock for years due to their company not buying this policy option.

 

[hitbrownie]

Do you have difficulty grasping what insurance is for?

Does your auto insurance cover your oil changes?

 

[~hilary~]

if youre black or mexican

 

[classof2012]

Bullshit. Birth control is elective and should not be covered under health insurance

[gary r]

there is an argument to be made regarding preventative measures covering all realms of the body, but it is a pretty far stretch, especially considering birth control is more or less a lifestyle product.
just put a fucking rubber on it and use spermicide
