Concerns unlawful employment practices based on provision of health benefits plans.

This bill prohibits employers in New Jersey from providing health benefits plans that exclude coverage for prescription female contraceptives. It applies to all employers except religious employers whose beliefs conflict with contraceptive coverage, and to health plans that maintain grandfathered status under federal law. The bill defines "health benefits plan" as any plan providing hospital and medical expense benefits delivered in New Jersey, and "religious employer" as churches, church-related schools, or tax-exempt organizations under specific federal tax codes. This law ensures contraceptive coverage must be included in employer-provided health insurance plans, with specific exceptions for religious organizations and grandfathered federal plans.
