I fail to see the snark in pointing out you were factually wrong. And you STILL are factually wrong.

Yes, there are now generic versions of Viagra. BUT... Those are not covered by Medicare, either...

Now, coverage by your Medicare Supplemental Plan is an entirely different thing...

And since Medicaid run on a state by state basis, the answer there is "sometimes"

Birth control, otoh, IS covered by "publicly funded insurance"...

From HHS: "All FDA-approved contraceptive methods, products and devices, including long acting reversible contraceptives (LARCs) such as IUDs (Intrauterine Devices) are covered."
