  • Currently, the 1976 Hyde Amendment prohibits the use of federal funds for abortions through Medicaid except in cases of rape, incest or when the mother's health is in peril. So states that want to offer abortion coverage have to pay for it themselves. The

    "health exception is often used as a

    way to provide funding for ALL abortions since "mental health" is included in that broad definition. Federal funds cannot be provided "through Medicaid". Once medicaid is gone, ??? & the states can fund.

  • Currently, the 1976 Hyde Amendment prohibits the use of federal funds for abortions **through Medicaid **except in cases of rape, incest or when the mother's health is in peril. So states that want to offer abortion coverage have to pay for it themselves. (Note that the states can provide funding if they choose to - the Hyde Amdn. ONLY prohibits FEDERAL funding.).
