New Women’s Health Benefit Boon for Breastfeeding

In time for World Breastfeeding Week, HHS Secretary Sebelius announced this morning that insurance companies must cover at no additional cost preventive health services. These services will include birth control, annual well-woman visits, gestational diabetes screening, HPV testing, HIV screening and counseling, breastfeeding support and supplies, and domestic violence screening and counseling. These new guidelines will not only help ensure that women receive the timely care they need to maintain good health but also help to reduce health disparities among women. This is a historic day for women’s health!
