Your doctor can also write your carrier a letter saying that you need to be on the medication for medically related reasons. I had this done when I was working at a private school that was church affiliated. I know this because right after I had Melody, our school changed insurance companies ( mid year!!!) and they were not going to cover BCP. I called my doctor's office--he said he would take care of it. BAM...two days later, my pharmacy called and said my prescription was ready.
There are some organizations, if they are religiously affiliated, that will not pay for birth control. A married couple that we know ran into this problem. He was employed by the Catholic hospital in our town, and they did not cover BCP on the insurance whatsoever. They had to pay out of pocket for it.
