HELP INCREASE MEDI-CAL REIMBURSEMENT RATE

Support Planned Parenthood by supporting an increase in the Medi-Care Reimbursement Rate

     We need your help to secure an increase in the Medi-Cal Reimbursement Rate in this year’s state budget. Thousands of women go without reproductive health care services. Statewide Planned Parenthood is forced to turn away 10,000 patients monthly. We cannot afford to serve those in need of our services because there has not been a significant increase in the Medi-Care reimbursement rate in more than 20 years, even though the cost for providing care at our clinics have increased by more than 300% over the same time period.
