It says that there is at least one such health care plan that provides coverage of services described in clauses i and ii of subparagraph (b). You look at subparagraph (b)(i), and it says: The services described in this clause are abortions for which the expenditure of Federal funds appropriated for the Department of Health and Human Services is not permitted based on the laws in effect at the date that is six months before the beginning of the plan year.
