This Health Policy in Transit explains a recent federal district court ruling regarding coverage of preventive care services recommended by the US Preventive Services Task Force. Under a provision of the Affordable Care Act, all plan sponsors, including employers, are required to cover a specific set of preventive services with no cost sharing for enrollees. This court decision calls into question the constitutionality of that requirement, but it is unclear how this ruling may apply outside of the litigants in this case.
