Due to these changes in regulation by the federal government, beginning with the 2012-13 school year, the University 1) will no longer require that all full-time undergraduate students carry health insurance, 2) will no longer offer a student health insurance plan, and 3) will no longer bill those not covered under a parent/guardian plan or personal plan for student health insurance. The current student health insurance plan will expire on August 15, 2012.

We encourage you to decide how you are going to provide for accidents or illnesses requiring visits to physicians, health clinics, or the hospital emergency room while you are a student here. As always, our Health Center on campus will be staffed by a certified nurse practitioner Monday – Friday during normal business hours. No insurance is necessary to receive basic health-related services at the Health Center, and the visits cost only $5 at the time of service. However, if you are referred off campus for further lab testing, physician specialists, X-rays, etc., you will be responsible to pay for those services.

Catholic University drops health coverage due to objection over Obama’s contraception mandate « Hot Air Headlines

And so it begins...
 
Regarding the above quote it is impossible to state that who is responsible for this thing, either the government or the college administrators. Moreover people are left with nothing but just to blame the situation, that what was the purpose of taking such decision for which people may face problem.
 
Only the beginning, if the SCOTUS doesn't overturn Obombacare - we will see wholesale insurance cancellations all over.
Once again the left will create more problems than what they were trying to solve.
 
The students who are 26 and under can get their healthcare insurance under their parents healthcare plan.
The University did fire a professor because of his views on birth control decades ago via the Vatican, so obviously the University's decision regarding contraceptive is consistent with their historical philosophy.

Not necessarily. (My emphasis)
Most plans only cover the child if no other plans are available to them...no matter how bad.
We went through this last year with my daughter. While in college (and still is) she was working part-time as a waitress for a franchise chain. They offered expensive/terrible insurance that covered practically nothing. We had to choose between her quitting her job or losing health insurance.
She quit her job. Another victim of Obamacare. Punished for having a job.

Personally, I think it's by design. They want this to happen.

Yes Obamacare taxing companies that do not offer insurance is totally going to result in less companies offering insurance.
You idiots would blame Obamacare for the BP oil spill of some dumbass republcian told you so

The tax is cheaper than the insurance, the cost of which is still increasing despite the passage of the legislation.

Yes the tax is cheaper than the insurance but before the tax it was even more cheaper.
Furthermore health care spending is now increasing at its lowest rate a decade, and all estimates and analysis of Obamacare show it reducing costs
 
(CNN) – A Catholic college in Ohio has apparently become the nation’s first to drop its health care plan because it opposes parts of the federal health care law signed by President Barack Obama.

The Franciscan University of Steubenville posted on its website last week that it is discontinuing its health care plan.

“The Obama Administration has mandated that all health insurance plans must cover ‘women’s health services’ including contraception, sterilization, and abortion-causing medications as part of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act,” the university says.

“We will not participate in a plan that requires us to violate the consistent teachings of the Catholic Church on the sacredness of human life,” the statement says.'

The Obama Hussein administration had been passing out waivers to union companies, like the auto industry. But, no waivers for Catholic institutions?

i agree.....their marxist goal has always been to destroy private health insurance...
 
I hope the democrats feel real good about this. Maybe they will feel as proud as when they drove Catholic Charities from the work they had done faithfully and well on adoption for so many years. I'm sure all those children who might otherwise have been adopted really appreciate the leftists insistence on violating the separation of church and state to advance their leftist agenda no matter what the consequences. Perhaps everyone at the university who finds themselves without coverage will be equally appreciative.

Fuck off, racist. This is not another opportunity for you to demonstrate what an asshole you are. You have plenty of other threads for that.
 
And there is at least one more university considering it.

Florida Catholic school considers dropping student health plan, on heels of Ohio decision | Fox News

On the heels of an Ohio school's decision to abandon its student health insurance plan, another Catholic university in Florida is considering whether to follow suit over concerns about premium costs associated with the federal health care overhaul, FoxNews.com has learned.

The school, the private Ave Maria University, is voicing both moral and economic concerns.
Like Franciscan University -- the Steubenville, Ohio, school that just announced it is dropping student coverage -- Ave Maria officials are opposed to the so-called contraceptive coverage mandate. But for both schools, premium costs associated with new coverage requirements appear to be fueling their anxiety.

This is exactly what they wanted. No health care left except the government health care. And when this country has the power over your health care your life will become so fucked. More fucked than it already is, idiots.

they're idiots.
 
Obama's Marxist-style mandate that requires Catholic colleges, groups and businesses to pay for drugs that may cause abortions and birth control for their employees is beginning to have its intended effect......the cancellation of private health coverage....

This is how Marxist Socialists step on the freedom of religion....and step-by-step take over a huge chunk of the economy......and once the State controls a man's healthcare....it controls the man....
