[Original Story] On Monday, July 21, a federal judge's temporary restraining order expired — and with it went Medicaid reimbursements for all 114 Planned Parenthood clinics in California. That includes the six health centers run by Planned Parenthood California Central Coast, where nearly 30,000 patients rely on services and which now float in financial limbo. Statewide, the loss of funding could total as much as $300 million, threatening the ability of California’s entire reproductive health network to stay open, according to Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California.
“The Court’s decision, at least for now, allows the Trump Administration’s cruel, politically motivated attack on Planned Parenthood and our patients to move forward,” said Dr. Jenna Tosh, President and CEO of Planned Parenthood California Central Coast, in a statement. “This attack disproportionately harms patients in states like California, where abortion is still legal.”
