Unintended Pregnancy Reduction Act S.2914

Email To A Friend
This bill would expand access to contraceptive services for women and men under the Medicaid program. The legislation has two primary goals: to restore family planning as a required service under Medicaid (this was required in federal law since 1972 but changed with the passage of the Deficit Reduction Act in 2006), and to ensure that the criteria used by states to determine eligibility for pregnancy-related care would apply to eligibility to family planning services. This bill would establish a nationwide standard that would allow low-income women—those who qualify for Medicaid and who may become pregnant—to have the opportunity and resources to avoid pregnancy if they so desire.
