Reproduction representatives of reproductive rights are raised from Thursday from Thursday Judgment of the Supreme Court In a legal case in favor of South Carolina to block the Medicaid financing for the planned parenthood, she will give other countries the green lightweight to do the same.
“Today’s decision is a serious injustice that strikes and promises in the foundation of American freedom to send South Carolina deeper into a health crises,” said Paige Johnson, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood South Atlantic.
“The judges have refused to hear this case twice because the intention of governor McMaster is clear: weapons the anti-abortation mood to rob communities with low incomes for fundamental health care,” she continued and mentioned South Carolina governor Henry Master (R).
In this case, it was not about abortion, but about whether Medicaid beneficiaries have the right to choose their preferred health service provider, and to sue if they cannot.
According to the law, anyone who receives health insurance can be looked after by any qualified and willing provider.
Public health funds generally do not pay for abortion care. However, the verdict means that Medicaid patients in South Carolina can no longer exploit their health insurance to pay birth control, cancer screening examinations, sti tests and treatment and other preventive health care in Planned Parenthood Clinics.
While the judgment only applies in South Carolina, the reproductive rights groups believe that elected civil servants in other countries will exploit the case as a template to restrict access to health care.
Missouri, Arkansas and Texas have already blocked the planned parenthood from the acceptance of medicaid patients, and supporters expect others to follow the example of republicans.
“As extremists in every branch of our government, aim to roam millions of Americans of care that offer their health centers, this is nothing more than a politically motivated green light for anti-abbreviation politicians,” said Diana Degette (D-Colo.
The Supreme Court’s decision is made that the planned parenthood is exposed and the Federal Finance loses the Republicans’ Reconciliation Act. According to the organization, at least 200 clinics for planned parenthood are exposed to the risk of closing if the bill is passed as in the Senate.
Anthony Wright, the executive director of the Consumer Health Advocacy Groups USA, agreed that the move for other countries will probably serve as a green lightweight to try to impose similar restrictions.
“The Court of Justice has now given the states a green light in order to impose even more harmful obstacles to care,” he said in an explanation. “This judgment will make it more difficult for people to access the care they need, and it enables politicians and courts to get into personal health care.”
The Center for Productive Rights said in a statement that the judgment opened the door for other Medicaid missions by state officials who would like to revoke the funds for other ideological reasons for qualified clinics, e.g.
The center emphasized that the decision will have a low -income American.
According to Medicaid, around 72 million Americans with low incomes receive most of the Recent registration figures.
And more than 1.3 million South Caroliners – or 20 percent of the state – are inscribed in the program according to the program Non -profit KFF health policy.
“Today’s decision favors extremists who would rather let someone die from cancer than to have cancer screening received during a planned parenthood,” said Nancy Northup, President and CEO of the Center for Productive Rights. “The Supreme Court has what the Medicaid Act demands and every patient overwritten: the ability to choose its trustworthy health service provider.”
Northup added that the judgment of the multiAlican efforts of the Republican legislators “fuel for fire” would refuse to access medicaid patients to non-derite services in the planned parenthood.
The supporters emphasized that the judgment will also disproportionately influence color communities in the state and possibly throughout the country. Of the approximately 72 million Americans on Medicaid, more than half are colored people, with black and Hispanic Americans enrolled into the program.
“Today’s harmful decision of the Supreme Court is a direct attack by black women, girls and gender people who rely on the planned parenthood for life -saving health services, said Regina Davis Moss, President in our own voice, a non -profit organization of reproductive rights that stand out black health experiences.
“In this case, it was never about abortion, and now this judgment will have devastating consequences for millions of Americans who lose access to reproductive health care.”
Moss added that Medicaid paid almost two thirds of the births among black mothers and more than half of insured Black girls in the USA
In the meantime, some anti-abdominal groups praised the court’s decision with the President of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, Marjorie Dannenfelser, a massive step to end the “Saess of Planned Parenthood financed by the taxpayer”.
“By rejecting the legal management of Planned Parenthood, the court not only saves countless unborn babies from violent death and their mothers from dangerously shabby” care “, but also protects Medicaid from thousands of complaints from unqualified providers who would endanger the entire program,” said Katie Daniel, director of the legal affairs at Susan Affairs at Susan Affairs.
