NEW YORK (AP) — Walmart, the nation’s largest employer, is
expanding its abortion coverage for employees after staying
largely mum on the issue following the Supreme Court ruling that
scrapped a nationwide right to abortion.
In a memo sent to employees on Friday, the company said its
health care plans will now cover abortion for employees “when
there is a health risk to the mother, rape or incest, ectopic
pregnancy, miscarriage or lack of fetal viability.”
Previously, the company’s benefits plan had covered abortion
only in cases “when the health of the mother would be in danger
if the fetus were carried to term, the fetus could not survive
the birthing process, or death would be imminent after birth,”
according to a copy of the policy viewed by The Associated Press
but not confirmed by Walmart.
Donna Morris, the retailer’s chief people officer, said in the
memo to staff that the new policy will also offer “travel
support” for workers seeking abortions covered under its health
care plans — as well as their dependents — so they can access
services that are not available within 100 miles of their
locations.
Walmart employs nearly 1.6 million people in the U.S. In
Arkansas, where the company is based, abortion is banned under
all circumstances unless the procedure is needed to protect the
life of the mother in a medical emergency. There are no
exceptions for rape or incest. That means under the revised
policy, Walmart employees can travel out of the state — or any
other state that bans abortion for rape and incest — to obtain
the procedure through the retailer’s health plans.
Several companies — including Meta, American Express and Bank of
America — have said they will cover travel costs for their
employees in the aftermath of the high court ruling that tossed
out Roe v. Wade, including elective abortions. But a Walmart
spokesperson did not immediately reply for a request for comment
on whether any of the company’s revised policy will cover
elective abortions as well.
