Conservative private employers in Texas challenged a preventative-care mandate on the grounds that providing such coverage goes against their religious beliefs against members of the LGBTQ community and non-marital sex. Their victory in this litigation means that private employers can offer healthcare plans that do not cover medications and services that easily and routinely prevent STDs, drug use, and pregnancy.
private employers can now offer health insurance plans that exclude or limits coverage of PrEP drugs, contraception, the HPV vaccine, and screenings and behavioral counseling for STDs and drug use.
