Employer/COBRA Insurance Insurance doesn’t cover contraceptives because they said they’re a Christian-based organization
i use birth control to stop my periods and when i called my insurance to check for coverage this morning they said they don’t cover contraceptives for religious reasons
the estimate from my provider is around $2000 without insurance so just double-checking about alternative routes i can take given that information
insurance is from virginia mason hospital & they switched to bcbsil from first choice this year if that’s relevant

Welp. That was what happens when you sign up with Christian insurance. They don't care that you have actual medical problems, they just wanna make sure you're free to keep pumping out those babies.
