Obama Admin to Force Hospitals, Doctors to Provide Sex Changes, Abortions


The Obama administration often cites their claim that Planned Parenthood does not receive any federal funding for their abortion procedures. Apparently all of the taxpayer money that goes to Planned Parenthood is somehow kept on a separate ledger than the money that funds the hundreds of thousands of abortions they perform each year.  Now, however, the administration is requiring that any doctor or hospital that accepts Medicare or Medicaid must provide abortions — and sex change operations.

The rule will require physicians, hospitals, insurers, and other healthcare entities that receive federal funds — such as Medicare and Medicaid — to include gender transition treatments and even abortion among their services for the alleged sake of “equity.”

The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued the final rule on Obamacare’s (Affordable Care Act’s) Section 1557 Friday, stating it will “help to advance equity and reduce health disparities by protecting some of the populations that have been most vulnerable to discrimination in the health care context.”

HHS states the rule covers:

  • Any health program or activity, any part of which receives funding from HHS (such as hospitals that accept Medicare or doctors who accept Medicaid);
  • Any health program that HHS itself administers;
  • Health Insurance Marketplaces and issuers that participate in those Marketplaces.

The Obama administration claims its new rule “builds on” prior federal civil rights laws to prohibit sex discrimination in health care.

It is hard to imagine that when civil rights pioneers like Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks fought for civil rights reform laws they had this in mind.  It is quite unlikely this was part of Dr. King’s famous dream.
