Looking for pregnancy coverage in Ohio. Just got letter from Golden Rule saying that my "pregnancy is not covered"! "Only complications of pregnancy"! SCAM!! Appealing but need coverage

If your coverage is group insurance, this is incorrect, because ERISA has required maternity coverage in group health insurance for many years. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act mandates that individual policies cover maternity not later than January 1, 2014, but many states have already adopted that change into their state law. I don't know if Ohio has or not, but you could certainly find out simply by searching the 2012 Ohio Insurance Code.
