Planned Parenthood of Southwest Ohio is closing its Springfield and Hamilton health centers due to federal and state legislation. While these clinics don't offer abortions, they provide other health services like birth control and STI testing to thousands of patients annually,

While advocates focused on Planned Parenthood, the bill did not mention it by name. Instead, it cut off reimbursements for organizations that are primarily engaged in family planning services — which generally include things such as contraception, abortion and pregnancy tests — and received more than $800,000 from Medicaid in 2023.

Planned Parenthood has said if it is "defunded," nearly 200 of its centers across 24 states would be at risk of closure - impacting millions of patients.
