After Roe v. Wade was overturned by the Supreme Court last month, employers and benefit providers have been quick to respond in support of the health of their workforce, and with a game plan to help individuals seek out the care they need.

Employee Benefit News reached out to 10 companies that provide necessary healthcare for women and families to discuss the steps they’re taking to ensure access not only for abortion services, but for the full spectrum of health and family needs. 

“The Forma team believes that all people should have the ability to make their own choices about their body and their future, and that reproductive care is deeply personal and a core part of healthcare,” Jason Fan, CEO and co-founder of Forma, tells Employee Benefit News. “The notion that a decision like this is determined by the government instead of between individuals and their doctors is deeply disturbing. In order to support that, we will continue to offer comprehensive health plans at no cost to our employees and a flexible PTO plan to support the time away from work for healthcare needs. In addition to that, we are adding a Medical-Travel HRA to our health benefit offerings to be used for the expenses those seeking out-of-state abortion services may incur.”

“We are deeply disappointed by this decision. Access to healthcare is our North Star at Kindbody and patient-centered care is the foundation on which our company was built. As reproductive healthcare providers, our position is that all people have a right to patient privacy and autonomy over their own bodies,” Dr. Angeline Beltsos, CEO of clinical of Kindbody, tells Employee Benefit News. “Right now, our focus is on our patients and providing them with the support they need. We will do everything to protect their rights.
