In Support of Protecting and Improving Women’s Health

The undersigned organizations committed to protecting and improving women’s health write to you in regards to the Affordable Care Act’s (ACA) birth control coverage benefit. We appreciate the Administration’s leadership in implementing the ACA, and the role it has played in ensuring that women are benefitting from this landmark law. While, thanks to the ACA, many women now have coverage of birth control without cost-sharing, some health insurance issuers are not in compliance with this law. This means that the women beneficiaries in these plans continue to face barriers when accessing the birth control they need.
