This would require quite the shift in billing on the part of every OB/GYN visited by a Hobby Lobby employee.

As for your last statement, even if you're contributing, your employer is paying the VAST majority of the cost of your insurance. That's why it is (accurately) referred to as a benefit.

yes, you can call it a benefit...but it is also part of your compensation as an employee. its not a gift out of the goodness of an employers heart.


at any rate, i saw the story last week. it's stunning that they are trying to take this approach, which just shows how truly irrational hobby lobby is about the whole subject.
