New York City's Planned Parenthood chapter will temporarily halt abortions at 20-plus weeks due to budget constraints from insufficient Medicaid reimbursement rates, affecting patients needing deep sedation for IUD insertions or surgical abortions.
Over 50% of Planned Parenthood patients rely on Medicaid, contributing to the strain on resources, prompting the decision to maintain only local anesthesia and moderate sedation, with hopes to resume full services in 6-12 months.
