Planned Parenthood Withdraws from Title X Funding: What Does That Mean For Patients?

Planned Parenthood has withdrawn from the Title 10 program due to a new rule by the Trump administration that restricts abortion referrals. Title 10, a federal family planning program, provides essential health services to low-income individuals.

This decision affects access to vital health services like cancer screenings and contraception, impacting many women and increasing Medicaid costs. Legal challenges are ongoing, but the rule remains in effect.
