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

You should be able to buy “Opill”over the counter….for now, at least. It’s an OTC oral contraceptive. Should be around $35 for a three month supply on Amazon
