To see the problem, one need only note that a pregnancy can be wanted at one moment and unwanted at the next moment. A woman might not want to become pregnant yet take no precautions against it. I have strong doubts that in a free market insurance companies would venture into this sort of coverage. It is too subjective an area. Self-insurance would be the common-sense way to finance abortion, especially since early-term abortion is not expensive, even today with all the medical protectionism that goes on. Of course, I am willing to have the free market correct me. But none of this can justify government's mandating insurance for abortion or anything else.

Insurance doesn't cover happenings, it covers (volitional) actions the insuree might want to take in response to a happening. There are many instances that illustrate that what we call "health insurance" is, for the most part, prepayment of medical services. Abortion coverage is not one of them.
