The 5th Circuit Court has ruled that a key component of the ACA's preventive care mandate is unconstitutional, but health plans must still provide free preventive services for now. Here's what you need to know: 💼 Current Status: Despite the ruling, health plans must continue offering preventive services without cost sharing, including cancer screenings, vaccinations, and screenings for chronic conditions. ⚖️ Court Decision: The ruling affects only a small group of plaintiffs and is not nationwide. An appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court is anticipated. 🔍 Looking Ahead: The future of free preventive care under the ACA remains uncertain, with potential for further legal challenges.

The 11th Circuit Court recently ruled that an unmarried father is not entitled to FMLA leave before the birth of his child. This decision underscores the specific conditions under which FMLA leave can be granted. 📄 Key Points: FMLA provides up to 12 weeks of leave for the birth and care of a newborn, starting from the child's birth. Pre-birth FMLA leave is only permitted for specific reasons, such as a pregnant mother's incapacity or prenatal care. The court ruled that these provisions do not extend to unmarried fathers awaiting the birth of their child. Employers in Alabama, Florida, and Georgia should review their FMLA policies to ensure compliance. Stay informed about how this ruling impacts your organization's leave practices.
