If the penalty for not purchasing insurance is removed, there will probably be some who will not, voluntarily, buy it. There will probably be various plans to choose from, including catastrophic insurance. There may be health savings plans. There may be some form of basic coverage for poor or unemployed people implemented by state or local governments. And there will be health care for serious problems even for uninsured.

Who knows until it happens. And if there is this terrible burden on some to buy their own contraceptives, there could be some form of government as well as health care agencies which provide it for the poor. It is not necessary to charge every buyer of insurance for birth control.

I don't foresee any dire consequences. Predicting them might be more harmful than usefel.

A LOT of things can be done to make insurance voluntary and reasonable.
