Starting in February, birth control will be covered under health insurance for employees of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
When asked why the change occurred now — after decades of clients lobbying for it — a DMBA spokesperson, attorney Scott Eastmond, simply said that “DMBA regularly reviews medical benefits and coverages and periodically makes changes in response to a variety of factors.”
She and her colleagues “have written pretty long proposals on the topic for the past three years,” going so far as to include anecdotes from the Instagram account “Launched in 2022, the social media channel includes hundreds of anonymous anecdotes attributed to church employees — including men — describing the impact of the insurer’s birth control exclusion and reasons for needing access to contraceptives.
Looking back, Coyne believes stories like these ultimately helped turn the tide of opinion among those ultimately responsible for making the final call. Sydney Mogotsi, pictured here with her daughter, worked for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints from 2018 to 2022. During that time, she sought family planning care from Planned Parenthood due to DMBA's lack of coverage.
Like Coyne, she pointed to the research showing that when women have access to birth control “it improves all aspects of life for her.”
