National Briefing | Midwest: Indiana: Court Rules for Planned Parenthood

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 24 Oktober 2012 | 13.57

Indiana cannot block Planned Parenthood from receiving Medicaid funds simply because the organization provides abortions, a federal appeals court ruled Tuesday, upholding the crux of a lower court order that said the state could not deny patients the right to choose their own health care provider. Gov. Mitch Daniels, a Republican, signed a law seeking to cut off the organization in May 2011, making Indiana the first state to deny Medicaid money to Planned Parenthood for general health services, including cancer screenings. The organization immediately challenged the law, and Judge Tanya Walton Pratt of Federal District Court blocked the state from enforcing it in June 2011. On Tuesday, the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit, in Chicago, upheld the core part of Judge Pratt's order, saying the law effectively steps on a person's right to choose his or her doctors.
