The U.S. Supreme Court’s ruling in Dobbs vs. Jackson Women’s Health Organization reversed Roe v. Wade, which took away women’s constitutional right to an abortion. Instead, they put the power to regulate abortion in the hands of individual states.

In the wake of this decision, having access to benefits that cover abortion is more important than ever. “Lots of insurance plans do not even cover abortion,” says Elizabeth Estrada, New York Field and Advocacy Manager for the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Justice. “It really is an intentional effort on the company's part to seek plans that do cover abortion.”

In response, companies across the country have spoken out against the ruling and publicly committed to supporting their employees by offering benefits that cover abortion and related costs—whether the employees live in states that protect abortion rights or states that limit or deny access to this critical reproductive care.

In addition to ensuring their health insurance plans cover abortion care, many companies are also offering additional abortion-related benefits to employees, including travel reimbursements for employees who can’t access abortion care locally and processes to protect employee privacy if and when they need to seek an abortion—benefits that make abortion care more accessible and affordable.

“Companies should ensure that health insurance or abortion is covered under the company's health insurance plans,” says Estrada. “If you're living in a banned state—such as Texas or Georgia or, soon, Florida—then the company should be not only providing abortion coverage, but also be acknowledging the fact that some people are going to have to travel outside of their state for care…so if there are travel reimbursements, that would be one less barrier to access that they would be able to facilitate for their employees.”
