Did you hear thousands of low-income Planned Parenthood of Indiana patients were left fending for themselves Tuesday to pay for birth control, breast exams, and Pap tests while a court battle continued over a new state law that eliminated the organization's Medicaid funding.Yes, that exactly what you heard if you listened to Planned Parenthood and read the
Associated Press's report. One omission, and of course it was unintentional, is the plain fact that while Indiana defunded 28 Planned Parenthood facilities there are over 800 clinics, doctors, and other healthcare providers that do provide these same service and accept Medicaid. Half a truth is better than none?
