A corporate entity or organization does not have beliefs. It's owners, managers, and employees do, but their religious freedoms are already individually protected. Presuming that an organization has a belief in and of itself is just a way for those powerful within the organization to enforce their own religious beliefs on those less powerful within the organization.

Of course it is. For some reason, employment insurance has been the way we subsidize healthcare, and thus employers exert power as the gate keepers to this vital service. That's the only reason employers are part of this equation.
Make it a single payer system, and such artificial dilemmas of religious organizations evaporate, and it will be between individual people and the tax man, as we analogize about above.
