Should Men be able to use their Insurance to purchase Plan B?

I just checked today and my insurance company will not cover this for me however they will cover it for a woman. I can still buy it over the counter but it would have been nice if it would have been covered by my insurance since it would have saved me money.

1. No

There is no medical condition for which a man would need Plan B.

Given that a man has no legitimate medical purpose for which this drug is indicated, then why would his insurance cover it?

"Buying something for someone else" has never been a condition of reimbursement for insurance purposes. The "insured" is the person who needs to have the medical condition for which a treatment is indicated.

Likewise, you do not have a Constitutionally protected right to an abortion, if that is your next question.

In all fairness, I don't think she has one.
