"The Supreme Court appears likely to uphold a key provision of the Affordable Care Act requiring insurers to cover preventive care, like pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP), recommended by the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force at no cost."

The Supreme Court is likely to uphold a provision of the Affordable Care Act requiring insurers to cover preventive care, including PrEP, at no cost.
