amend the Affordable Care Act to include vasectomies for men as a fully covered birth control option.

Created by B.W. on July 01, 2014

According to, https://www.healthcare.gov/what-are-my-birth-control-benefits/, birth control options for men, vasectomies, are being excluded from 100% coverage under the Affordable Care Act, and the equivalent procedure for women is covered.
Vasectomies are one of the simplest and cost effective forms of permanent birth control available, and the only form of permanent birth control available specifically to men. Couples who are looking for permanent birth control options should not be pushed into more expensive and dangerous options simply because they are covered 100%. Additionally, men should have the same permanent birth control options available to women.
Please correct this oversight, and get vasectomies included in the fully covered options available to men and couples. Thank you!
