Insurance doesn’t cover contraceptives because they said they’re a Christian-based organization

[u/sweetbabycoconut]

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

I used Nurx for YEARS and have nothing but good things to say about them. Cheapest pills are $15/month and they shipped them straight to my door. I have a better job with great healthcare and a pharmacy up the street so I don’t use Nurx anymore, but they’re wonderful.
