After receiving more than 54,000 comments on whether and how to accommodate objections from religious nonprofit groups to the health care law’s contraceptive insurance requirement, the Obama administration said it will not make any changes to the practices that were challenged—and left unresolved—in the U.S. Supreme Court.
Regulatory authorities on Monday said the thousands of comments “indicate that no feasible approach has been identified at this time that would resolve the concerns of religious objectors, while still ensuring that the affected women receive full and equal health coverage, including contraceptive coverage.”
