Half of all states currently ban health plans on their ACA marketplaces from providing abortion coverage, while six states allow such coverage but have no plans that offer it, according to an analysis from the Kaiser Family Foundation.
Of the 25 states that prohibit abortion coverage, 11 allow exceptions similar to the Hyde Amendment, which allows for federal funds to be used only for abortions of pregnancies resulting from rape or incest or those that endanger the woman’s life. Another 12 states have exceptions that are more narrow than the Hyde Amendment, and two states, Louisiana and Tennessee, do not have any exceptions, Kaiser reported.
Along with the six states that allow abortion coverage on their marketplaces but have no health plans that offer it, there are 17 states that have at least one plan that makes abortion coverage available and two states, Hawaii and Vermont, where all of the marketplace plans include it, according to Kaiser.
