💨 Abstract

The Supreme Court upheld a key part of the Affordable Care Act's preventive health care coverage requirements, ruling that a volunteer board of medical experts doesn't need Senate approval to recommend services for full coverage by private insurance. The 6-3 decision rejected a challenge from Christian employers who argued the process was unconstitutional. Medications and services affected include cholesterol drugs, cancer screenings, and HIV-prevention drugs.
