Judge orders Bartell Drug to cover birth control in plan
U S District Judge Robert Lasnik ruled Bartell Drug Co must include prescription contraceptives in employee health insurance. The summary judgment for Jennifer Erickson says the policy’s exclusion creates a gap impacting female employees and violates the Pregnancy Discrimination Act. Erickson, a Bartell pharmacist, urged broader coverage for employers nationwide. Bartell’s attorney argued the law does not support that interpretation.
