Demand President Biden ensure insurance covers over-the-counter birth control

Over-the-counter birth control must be fully covered by all insurance plans [Democracy for America Advocacy Fund](#) {NAME} Birth control is a fundamental right, not a privilege but for too long, access to it has been restricted by medically unnecessary prescription requirements and cost barriers. Now, with the groundbreaking FDA approval of an over-the-counter birth control pill, we have a critical chance to tear down these obstacles and dramatically expand contraceptive access. Yet, despite the Affordable Care Act's coverage of prescription birth control, OTC options like Opill risk being sidelined since they aren't always covered by insurance, making them too expensive for many. By using the full force of his office to ensure OTC contraceptives are covered just like prescription methods, President Biden has the power to tear down barriers to birth control access for millions. But he must hear from us that this is a priority he cannot ignore. [Over-the-counter birth control must be fully covered by all insurance plans, including Medicaid, just like prescription contraceptives already are. Help send President Biden a clear message now.]( [SIGN & SEND]( While the newly approved Opill will soon be available OTC, its anticipated cost of $20-50 per month will put it out of reach for the very people who need it most -- young folks, low-income individuals, and others who already face the greatest barriers to reproductive healthcare. No one should have to choose between basic necessities and being able to control their own fertility. Research clearly shows that when cost barriers to contraception are eliminated, use increases significantly, resulting in fewer unintended pregnancies. Categorically denying insurance coverage for what may soon be the most affordable and accessible contraceptive method is both deeply unjust and remarkably short-sighted. For the sake of reproductive autonomy and health equity, we must raise our voices until the White House gets the message. [Demand President Biden to require insurance coverage of OTC birth control -- no prescription needed.]( Together, we can push the Biden administration to seize this historic opportunity and take a monumental step toward reproductive freedom. - DFA AF Team [Power This Campaign]( Democracy for America Advocacy Fund is a 501c4 organization.
