So women already have this coverage.

One poster said Fluke was speaking out against the Blunt Amendment.
To answer your question, no, not now.

Affordable Care Act Rules on Expanding Access to Preventive Services for Women | HealthCare.gov
New private health plans must cover the guidelines on women’s preventive services with no cost sharing in plan years starting on or after August 1, 2012. •Grandfathered plans: If your plan is “grandfathered,” these benefits may not be available to you.

No, not all women already have this coverage.

"One poster said", LOL! Why don't you read her testimony?

You just have a dirty mind, that's all. All you can think about is sex. That's what happens when you wallow in Rush "Porky Pig" Limbaugh's pigsty.

Covered by insurance doesn't = free.
Different drugs cost different amounts and not everyone can get what they need for $5 at Walmart.
You can't buy a policy that doesn't include a drug you want because it's stupid.

Yes you have a dirty mind. You think that women who use the pill must be having sex for pleasure...therefore they should not be covered by insurance.

Well, what do you call smokers, alcoholics, and obese people? Smokers smoke for pleasure. Alcoholics drink for pleasure. Obese people overeat for pleasure. Then they all get sick because of their pleasure-seeking habits. They account for over 70% of health care costs in this country.

By your logic, they should all be denied insurance. Rush Limbaugh should be denied insurance. Heck, he is fat, drinks, and smokes. Why should I be made to subsidize his habits (since presumably all of us who are insured belong to one gigantic insurance pool)? Everyone who is insured and is not fat is in effect subsidizing Rush Limbaugh's piggish lifestyle.

But you do want everyone to pay for what others do, don't you??? It becomes my business when taxpayer's are being asked to pay higher cost for those that want more in their health insurance plan.

By the way everyone thinks Viagra is paid for by insurance companies and it's not, so you and others follow the lies of Planned Parenthood.

If Ms Fluke and others that attend the college can afford the college, they can buy their own BC or find another college that will take care of their sexual needs.

The only one opposing HAVING to buy it is the Catholic college and hospitals. BCP's are not being regulated or taken away. I don't know were your getting this. Heck most religious people take it their selves.

Ms. Fluke is there on scholarship, and many law students use student loans to finance law school.

Once again, NO TAXPAYER MONEY IS BEING PAID IN THE CASE OF GEORGETOWN U!
