A New Right to Free Birth Control

This is huge, HUGE news. As of August 2012, all American women will have the preventive care and birth control that they need and deserve. The world of healthcare and insurance coverage can look awfully bleak at times, but this time we get to rise up and cheer!

"U.S. health insurance companies must offer women free birth control and other preventive health care services under rules released on Monday... The health department's guidelines followed the IOM's recommendations to require free screening for gestational diabetes, testing for human papillomavirus in women over 30, counseling for HIV and sexually transmitted infections, lactation counseling, screening for domestic violence and yearly wellness visits." - Yahoo News
