Are there any health insurance companies that will not cover abortion under any circumstances?

I'm interested if there are any insurance companies that won't cover abortion - so, if an individual is against abortion on moral/religious grounds, there is an insurer they can use that reflects these values.
--------------------
Not that I can think of. But when the policy is purchased, like through employer sponsored plans - the purchaser can elect to NOT have abortions covered under that policy. However, in cases of ectopic pregnancy, for example, when an abortion is the standard treatment to protect the life of the mother, most states will STILL require that standard health insurance covers it.
