without cost-sharing to, the full range of preventive
services for all women, such as contraception, breast cancer
screenings, mammograms, domestic violence screenings and
counseling, lactation support and counseling, screening for
gestational diabetes, testing for and counseling on sexually
transmitted infections, and well-women visits, as provided
for under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act
(Public Law 111-148);
(2) supporting access to women's primary care by investing
in nurse practitioners and other health care providers;
(3) improving maternal safety and quality of care;
(4) requiring coverage without cost-sharing of any over-

use without a prescription may not interfere with an
individual's access to or purchase of such contraception; or
(5) providing compassionate assistance through medically-
accurate information and services, including emergency
contraception and forensic medical examinations for survivors
of rape,
by the amounts provided in such legislation for those
purposes, provided that such legislation would not increase
the deficit over either the period of the total of fiscal
years 2018 through 2022 or the period of the total of fiscal
years 2018 through 2027.
