The Proposal of Reproduction Privacy Plans
In 2022, the Roe v. Wade was overturned by the Supreme Court. 24 states implemented the abortion bans. Millions are not only women, but people are being denied access to critical healthcare and they are being denied the right to make decisions about their own body. People thus have to make sacrifices for themselves and make decisions as to whether they are going to travel outside of the state to seek care, self-manage the situation, or follow through on the unwanted pregnancies. The Biden administration is now working on a proposal for the protection of patients and their privacy for those seeking reproductive healthcare. HIPAA’s ability to secure reproductive rights is fairly limited at the moment. This comes from the Supreme Courts decision of overturning Roe v. Wade and this since it has become a criminal issue, HIPAA can not violate the laws. The Biden administration knows what steps they’re able to take to protect the reproductive health care services as well as work to propose a new plan to implement more care to those seeking abortions. As of now there are a variety of methods for them to do until this plan is implemented which can benefits those who are struggling, those in the military service, beneficiaries, and other federal employees.View Poster
