Trump Rollback Of ACA Birth-Control Coverage Mandate To Push Down Gains In IUD Sales
Executive Summary
More religious-based college employers, and for-profit businesses with moral objections to contraceptive coverage, will be able to issue health plans denying intrauterine device and birth control coverage to their employees and students starting in 2018, under the administration's Oct. 6-issued "conscience rights" exemptions from Affordable Care Act (ACA) requirements. The interim final rules could dampen sales of IUDs and implants that have risen 5% in the last year at Bayer Healthcare and Allergan.
