Montana: CHIP will not pay for birth controlMissoulian: “Montana is one of only five states that forbids the Children’s Health Insurance Program from paying for birth-control products – and, as part of the budget deal struck by lawmakers over the weekend, that ban will remain intact. Sen. John Brueggeman, R-Polson, this month inserted language into a pair of budget bills to allow CHIP to start paying for contraception for teenage children covered by the government insurance program.”
