In this case it is the claim in Indiana that the taking away Medicaid funds from Planned Parenthood would deny women access to health care. Undercover phone calls released today by Live Action show Planned Parenthood of Indiana clinics admitting that they are not the only source of women’s health care for women on Medicaid. OOPS!!!! This is the total opposite of what was in an
official press release fromPlanned Parenthood CEO Cecile Richards where she claimed Indiana’s defunding of Planned Parenthood would “
take away health care from thousands of women in Indiana.”
Last week, Live Action’s undercover investigators called 16 of the 28 Indiana Planned Parenthood clinics. The callers posed as women on Medicaid concerned about where they could receive services if Planned Parenthood’s funding was not restored.
The result was that Planned Parenthood staffers at all 16 locations admitted that Medicaid women would still have access to medical care after the defunding. Did you get that?, no loss of aceess as Richards claims. In fact, staffers suggested local health clinics or state-assigned primary care physicians for Medicaid patients: “Your primary care doctor should be able to do [a Well Woman exam,] I mean, that’s what they’re there for,” said a Planned Parenthood in Michigan City. Notice what the Merrillville Planned Parenthood said of a local community health center, “They have the same services we have.” Yet over the past few months how many times have we heard Planned Parenthood make just the opposite claim?
Their claims about women's health concerns is a scam. & this is just 1 more proof that PP is using tax monies to underwrite their abortion industry & increase their profits while doing it.
Bravo to Live Action in their continuing efforts to expose the lies that Planned Parenthood tells as well as get the truth out about how they actually operate.
