A bill to amend title XXVII of the Public Health Service Act to require group health plans and health insurance issuers offering group or individual health insurance coverage to permit enrollees to obtain a 365-day supply of contraceptives.

Bill 118 s 2427, also known as the "Access to Contraception for Women Act," aims to amend title XXVII of the Public Health Service Act. The bill proposes that group health plans and health insurance issuers offering group or individual health insurance coverage must allow enrollees to obtain a 365-day supply of contraceptives.

This means that individuals covered under these health plans would have the option to receive a year's worth of contraceptives at one time, rather than having to make multiple trips to the pharmacy throughout the year. This provision is intended to increase access to contraceptives and make it more convenient for individuals to manage their reproductive health.

The bill does not specify which types of contraceptives would be covered under this provision, but it is likely to include a range of options such as birth control pills, patches, rings, and injections. By allowing for a 365-day supply, individuals would have greater flexibility in managing their contraception and may experience fewer interruptions in their use of birth control. Overall, the "Access to Contraception for Women Act" seeks to improve access to contraceptives and promote reproductive health for individuals covered under group health plans and health insurance issuers offering group or individual health insurance coverage.
