HB 410: Prohibit Medicaid funds for certain abortion providers
The proposed law aims to prohibit the payment of Medicaid funds to certain abortion providers. The goal is to prevent the use of federal Medicaid funds for abortion services, specifically for entities that are not allowed to receive federal funds due to their abortion-providing services. This measure seeks to align the state's Medicaid program with federal restrictions on funding abortion services.
