WASHINGTON - Fifty years after introduction of the pill, another birth control revolution may be on the horizon: free contraception for women in the U.S., thanks to the new health care law. The change could start a shift toward more reliable - and expensive - forms of birth control that are gaining acceptance in other developed countries. But first, look for a fight over social mores.
The Department of Defense is publishing this final rule to implement section 711 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year 2009 (FY 2009), Public Law 110-417. Section 711 eliminates copayments for authorized preventive services for TRICARE Standard beneficiaries other than Medicare-eligible beneficiaries. This rule also realigns the covered preventive services listed in the Exclusions section of the regulation to the Special Benefits section in the regulation.
Clarifying a much-anticipated new benefit in the new health care law, the Obama administration on Wednesday issued rules outlining how millions of consumers will soon be able get many preventive medical services at no out-of-pocket cost.

The legal and moral ("just war") permissibility of preventive military attacks has been one of the most urgent questions in international law since the onset of the War on Terror. Debates in this area commonly rest upon an assumption that the relevant strategic choice is between preventive war and deterrence, and that even if preventive war may be controversial, deterrence at least is legally straightforward and relatively unproblematic. This Article challenges that conventional assumption. I argue that deterrence and preventive war have more in common than is typically noticed-specifically, a shared future orientation and reliance on retrospectively disproportionate violence-and that in virtue of these common features, much of what we say about the permissibility of one of these strate...
CHICAGO - Bill Dunphy thought his colonoscopy would be free. His insurance company told him it would be covered 100 percent, with no copayment from him and no charge against his deductible. The nation's 1-year-old health law requires most insurance plans to cover all costs for preventive care including colon cancer screening. So Dunphy had the procedure in April.
