Tony Evers: “Badger Care plus currently covers over the counter emergency…”

“Last summer, the Food and Drug Administration approved the first daily oral contraceptive pill for use without a prescription, which is expected to be available in stores and online later this year. And that's great news. Badger Care plus currently covers over the counter emergency contraception and daily contraception with a prescription from a provider. Today I'm announcing I'm directing the Department of Health Services to issue a standing order for Badger Care plus to serve as a prescription to over the counter to cover over the counter contraception including emergency contraceptives.” (38:57–39:07)
