to 18- I'm the op... I didn't realize I hadn't been signed in when I posted. Basically, I have had the same.insurance for years and been using it for the same birth control for at least 5. I'm not sure what happened... Some clerical error I guess. I had it figured out but it was definitely weird.

Gonna have to refrain from raw dogging it until this is sorted out.
Wow, so you actually have part of your birth control paid for by your insurance? How sexist of your insurance company to pay for you as a female to go out and have sex, but males do not receive any coverage for condoms as far as I am aware from any insurance company. You should be paying for your own birth control, as it is a choice to have sex. This is part of the reason why insurance is so expensive, people who refuse to take responsibility for their own actions and want everyone else to pay their way. Pathetic to say the least, you have a job, pay for it yourself, or refrain from spreading your legs.
Why would they cover birth-control in the first place?
87- In this case it seems more like a mistake than an attempt to avoid paying. Since most insurance claims are adjudicated by computer, all it takes is one tiny mistake when they put OP into the system to cause this. If it's employer based, the error could even have been made by OP's employer and an update sent to the insurance company.
93 - Because birth control doesn't just stop women from getting pregnant. Some women don't have much estrogen or other lady hormones and this helps balance, or they have congenital diseases that are easiest to treat using the hormones in birth control pills/rings/shots/implants. And even then, most insurances wll cover it just as birth control because that means they pay out less on helping you not make babies than they would have to pay out to help a woman get through prenatal and such.
Identity theft maybe?
That's the government for you.
Private insurance is not government. That would be like getting the wrong sandwich at Wendy's and then going to Walmart to complain.
