Summary
The Supreme Court on Monday will hear arguments in Kennedy v. Braidwood, “a case that could strip away insurance coverage for preventive services like cancer screenings, HIV prevention and diabetes medication for millions of Americans.”
Braidwood Management claims covering PrEP “violated its rights under the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.”
The justices will weigh whether the United States Preventive Services Task Force “has the authority to recommend preventive services like PrEP be covered.”
A loss could mean “millions of Americans will be deprived of access to free, effective preventive care,” with “dire” impacts on marginalized groups and public health at large.
