plans may be offered as ‘‘church plans’’
(described above) to individual
churches as a means of pooling their
risk. The Departments seek comment on
whether different accommodations are
needed for such plans.
In addition, the Departments are
aware that 28 States have adopted laws
requiring that certain health insurance
issuers provide contraceptive coverage.
Some of these laws contain exemptions
related to religious organizations, but
the scope of the exemptions varies
among the States. Generally, Federal
health insurance coverage regulation
creates a floor to which States may add
consumer protections, but may not
subtract. This means that, in States with
broader religious exemptions than that
in the final regulations, the exemptions
will be narrowed to align with that in
the final regulations because this will
help more consumers. Organizations
that qualify for an exemption under
State law but do not qualify for the
exemption under the final regulations
may be eligible for the temporary
enforcement safe harbor. During this
transition period, State laws that require
contraceptive coverage with narrower or
no religious exemptions will continue.
The Departments seek comment on the
interaction between these State laws
and the intended regulations on which
we are seeking comment in this notice
and on the extent to which there is a
need for consistency between any
Federal regulations and these State
laws. Similarly, the Departments solicit
comment on what other Federal or State
laws or accounting rules governing
funding and accounting could affect the
proposed options described herein.
In addition, the Departments solicit
information on the number of
potentially affected issuers and religious
organizations as well as their plan
participants and beneficiaries; the
administrative cost of providing
separate contraceptive coverage,
including details regarding the nature of
the costs (for example, one-time systems
changes or ongoing administrative
costs); and the average costs and savings
to health plans, plan participants and
beneficiaries, and the public of
providing contraceptive coverage.
D. Additional Input
The 90-day comment period is
designed to encourage maximum input
into the development of an
accommodation for religious
organizations with religious objections
to providing contraceptive coverage
while ensuring the availability of
contraceptive coverage without cost
sharing for plan participants and
beneficiaries. The Departments seek

comments on the ideas and questions
outlined in this ANPRM as well as new
suggestions to achieve its goals. The
Departments also intend to hold
listening sessions to ensure all voices
are heard. This will not be the only
opportunity for comment. The
subsequent notice of proposed
rulemaking will also include a public
comment period. The Departments aim
to ensure that the final accommodation
is fully vetted and published in advance
of the expiration of the temporary
enforcement safe harbor.
