How the Supreme Court ruling could affect insurance coverage for abortions
CNN
Though a growing number of companies are offering to help workers travel to states where abortion is legal, it remains uncertain whether employers and insurers will have to pull back on providing abortion coverage to residents of states where the procedure is or will soon be banned.
Now that the Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade, much will rest on what laws states put in place -- particularly those governing their residents' ability to obtain abortions in other states and to be prescribed medication abortions, experts say.
"It would depend upon the legal language," said Doniella Pliss, a director on the health insurance ratings team at AM Best, a credit rating agency. "For an insurance company, that is not an ideological issue. ... They will go strictly by what the law is."

A remarkable scene is playing out in the US House of Representatives on Wednesday: In an effort to avoid votes on releasing files related to Jeffrey Epstein, Republicans are shutting it down early and heading out on a weekslong August recess. Nevermind that the Trump administration promised to release these files, and many Republicans want them to do so.
