> Just off the top of my head: Virtually every American with health insurance can get flu shots for free, paid for by their insurance carrier. Ditto for women who want birth control pills (though that is usually a legislative mandate).
These tend to make financial sense for insurers - flu shots are cheap and a lot cheaper than hospitalizations, same thing for avoiding pregnancy... and even then, both were explicitly made free via the ACA, not the kindness of health insurers.
