(1) All health insurers subject to this chapter; and

(2) All nonprofit hospital, medical, surgical, dental, and health service corporations subject to chapter 354 ; and

(3) All health maintenance organizations.

3. No health insurance exchange established within this state or any health insurance exchange administered by the federal government or its agencies within this state shall offer health insurance contracts, plans, or policies that provide coverage for elective abortions, nor shall any health insurance exchange operating within this state offer coverage for elective abortions through the purchase of an optional rider.

(L. 1983 S.B. 222 § 1, A.L. 2010 S.B. 793) (1992) Where statute prohibits insurance coverage for elective abortion unless coverage is provided in optional rider with separate premium, it does not impose an undue burden on a woman's abortion decision and it is rationally related to Missouri's interest in protecting the interest of citizens who object to subsidizing abortions through payment of their insurance premiums.
