OB/GYN News, March 15, 2000 by Joyce Frieden
Coverage for prescription contraceptives was the hottest women's health topic in state legislatures last year, according to the Blue Cross and Blue Shield Association, in Washington. Nine states--California, Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Maine, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, and South Dakota--passed laws mandating contraceptive coverage.
North Carolina also was the only state to require insurers to cover bone mass measurement tests for women at risk of osteoporosis; seven other states already require insurers either to cover the test or to offer coverage for it.
