VisitBiden Admin Announces New Rule to Protect Privacy in Reproductive Health, Including Abortion
Apr 22, 2024, 05:22 PM
On Monday, the Biden administration announced a new rule aimed at enhancing privacy protections for reproductive health care, including abortion services. Issued by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the rule prevents the weaponization of medical information in scenarios such as IVF treatments, miscarriage management, and other lawful care. It ensures that such health data remains protected under federal privacy laws similar to those covered by HIPAA, specifically banning the disclosure of information related to reproductive health. The rule was highlighted as part of President Biden's ongoing efforts to protect and expand access to reproductive health care, affirming that the Dobbs decision did not remove privacy rights.
