Uber's health care arm, whose clients include health care providers and insurance plans, will now manage drug delivery from any pharmacy in their service area by partnering with tech platform ScriptDrop.
Since 2019, states have been in a back-and-forth dispute with the behavioral health provider to determine whether the insurer inappropriately denied mental health and substance use disorder coverage to subscribers.
As the legality of a 15-week ban on abortions is being debated in court, the state's legislature is considering a bill which would allow abortions past six weeks only when the mother's life was in danger, or in cases of rape or incest.
