Some fun facts on how making contraceptives widely accessible saves a LOT of money:
* Insurers pay $18,329 for the average vaginal delivery and $27,866 for the average C-section. Prices for the uninsured are much higher: $30,000-$50,000.
* Nearly half of pregnancies are unplanned. Unplanned does not mean unwelcomed. But sometimes it does.
* Contraception costs $100-$600 annually and cuts the risk of unplanned pregnancies to nearly nothing.
That's why nearly all employer health plans cover contraception: it saves them a LOT of money.

Let's save money and help people control their reproductive systems by making contraception readily available to all who want it, as Obamacare tries to do.
