PRH strongly supports the important steps the Proposed Rule takes to ensure that health care actors are empowered to not share EHI that, if shared out, could result in criminalization and other legal harms for the patient.
The proposed rule ignores current standards of care and best medical practice in favor of implementing politically driven, arbitrary rules that will force health care providers to deprive patients of access to essential medical care.
The proposed rule ignores current standards of care and best medical practice in favor of implementing politically driven, arbitrary rules that will force health care providers to deprive patients of access to essential medical care.
The proposed rules closely align requirements for clinics providing procedural abortion care with regulations for ambulatory surgical centers (ASC). These requirements provide no additional safety or benefit to the patient.
PRH applauds the EEOC for making clear that employer delay in responding to accommodation requests “may result in a violation of the PWFA.”
The proposed rule is not based in science or medicine and will cause significant harm to patients and communities in Colorado.
PRH greatly appreciates the Department’s acknowledgement of the importance of privacy for reproductive health care.
"In the aftermath of the Court’s decision, we have watched an already devastating abortion access crisis become far worse."
As health care providers, we have witnessed first-hand the harm health care refusals have on our patients and communities.
