Obamacare in a nutshell

[booboo]

They're half right. Abortion isn't mentioned, anywhere, in the health care reform bill. Everything else in that article is just pure speculation. The bill makes mention of what minimum level of care will be covered, and mentions that additional levels of coverage will be available at a premium, but what services those premium packages cover has yet to be determined. Abortion would only be covered if a future bill deems it so, and that would only occur if this bill passes.

They wouldn't have to do much though, as abortion is already covered by many health insurance plans.

What about FOCA?

Just because it's not part of this particular bill doesn't mean it's not going to be pushed to be federally funded.

Edit: Oops, I posted this before I looked at Thumbelina's links. She linked to stories about this too.

I did some more reading into the bill, and had to go into an addendum of an addendum to find mention of abortion, and even then it clearly states abortion is only to be covered in cases in rape, incest, or if the life of the mother is threatened. I can see how some staunch anti-abortionists would be against that, but it doesn't actually change anything that's not already covered by most state laws and virtually every insurance program today.

I think I got off topic though, if we're talking about abortions as strictly by choice, no, the bill does NOT cover those.
