Opinion: The Trump administration wants to censor doctors. It’s unprecedented — and unethical.
People gather for a news conference and demonstration at City Hall in New York to protest the Trump administration's Title X rule change, on Monday. By Leana Wen February 28 at 11:41 AM Leana Wen is a physician and president of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America.
The Title X gag rule interferes with the sacred physician-patient relationship by censoring doctors, nurses and other health-care providers who participate in Title X, our nation’s dedicated program for affordable birth control and reproductive health care. The rule essentially gags us by forcing doctors to choose between providing information to women and families about how and where they can access abortion care and receiving funding through Title X.
For many patients, their visit to Planned Parenthood or another Title X provider is their sole source of health care; in many parts of the country, Planned Parenthood is the sole Title X provider. In Wisconsin, Planned Parenthood health centers served about 80 percent of Title X patients in 2017 and were the only Title X provider in seven counties. In California alone, we serve 700,000 people through Title X health centers.
