Insurers ignore ObamaCare birth control rule

Insurance companies are widely ignoring an ObamaCare rule that requires them to provide free or low-cost birth control, according to a report by the National Women’s Law Center.

Some insurance companies are still charging women out-of-pocket costs for birth control and limiting their coverage to only certain methods of birth control, both violations of the Affordable Care Act, according to the 22-page report to be released Wednesday.

Some companies are not covering the costs of related doctor’s appointments or are imposing age limits on coverage.

The uneven levels of coverage "not only fail to comply with the [Affordable Care Act], but recreate the cost barriers that existed prior to the ACA that contribute to increased risk of unintended pregnancy," the group wrote.

You'll get a box of defective condoms courtesy of the UN.

It's not like they don't have the inventory.
