The University of North Carolina system has backtracked on a mandatory health care plan that includes abortion coverage. Carolina Journal reported on the controversy here.
The AP now reports:
The University of North Carolina will let students remove coverage for elective abortions from their university-sponsored health insurance after a national group complained about the coverage.
UNC system President Erskine Bowles on Thursday directed a student insurance company to contact students who have bought a policy this fall and give them the chance to opt out of that coverage.
