WHAT THE BILL DOES
AI-writtenStates would be most directly affected, particularly their health departments and Medicaid programs. They would be required to establish or improve systems for collecting and submitting specific, standardized abortion data to the CDC. States that fail to comply with these reporting requirements could face financial penalties, specifically the withholding of certain federal Medicaid funds for family planning services.
Individuals who receive Medicaid-funded family planning services could be indirectly affected if their state loses federal funding due to non-compliance. This could potentially impact the availability or funding structure of these services, although the bill does allow for retroactive payments if data is submitted late, which might lessen immediate service disruptions.
KEY PROVISIONS
5AI-extractedPROVISION 01
States must submit specific, standardized abortion data to the CDC as a condition for receiving certain federal Medicaid payments for family planning services.

PROVISION 03
The standardized worksheet must include mandatory questions on specific variables such as maternal age, gestational age, abortion method, and whether a child survived the abortion.
PROVISION 04
States that knowingly provide false abortion data to the CDC could lose federal Medicaid payments for family planning services for one full fiscal year.
