Students for Life Releases Groundbreaking Healthcare Study

Students for Life researched the 200 largest universities in the United States to see whether their tax-fudned health insurance plans cover abortions. SFLA looked at a) if the school required health care, b) if they automatically charged a student’s account for health care, c) if the school offered a school-sponsored health care plan, and d) if the school-sponsored health care plan covered elective abortions.

SFLA found that out of the 200 schools researched:
  • 67 or 33.5% of 200 schools require students to have health care coverage
  • 194 or 97% of the 200 schools offer school-sponsored plans
  • 86 or 44.3% of the 194 schools who offer school-sponsored health care plans cover elective abortions
  • 38 or 44% of the 86 plans that cover elective abortions, automatically enroll their students in an abortion health care plan.
  • 66 or 33% of the 200 schools automatically enroll their students in their school sponsored health care plan to student’s accounts.
  • 38 or 57% of the 66 plans automatically enroll their students in a school sponsored plan that covers elective abortion.
