You will find this article is comparable to oral contraception law, but also deals with the religious organization should be exempt from providing their employees with birth control. Here is a something I found interesting " It argues that while churches themselves are exempt from providing birth control to employees free of charge, "religious schools, hospitals, and social services don't qualify as religious, and must therefore provide these drugs and procedures."
