Today, the President of the United States has issued what he referred to as an accommodation on the mandate from Kathleen Sebelius, the Secretary of Health and Human Services issued on January 20 of this year.

The revised plan, announced by President Obama on February 10, attempts to shift the burden of contraceptive coverage from employers to insurers. While some religious employers will be exempt from covering contraception in their health-care policies, their insurance companies will be required to furnish contraceptives to employees of those religious institutions at no additional cost.
