Report Backs Contraception
A new report recommends that health-insurance plans offer women all forms of approved contraception without charging out-of-pocket fees. The report was released Tuesday by the Institute of Medicine, which advises the U.S. government on health issues. It was commissioned by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to identify gaps in the department’s list of preventive health services already covered for women.
