READING, Pa. -Planned Parenthood Keystone, which has a location in Reading, is announcing a cutback in services to patients on Medicaid.<\/p>\n
The group’s CEO blames the cuts on a provision in the legislation known as the “One Big Beautiful Bill.”<\/p>\n
She says patients insured through Medicaid are barred from using their insurance to get services from Planned Parenthood.<\/p>\n
That includes services like cancer screenings and wellness exams.<\/p>\n
She also says state law prohibits Medicaid-enrolled providers from charging Medicaid patients for services covered under the program.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"READING, Pa. -Planned Parenthood Keystone, which has a location in Reading, is announcing a cutback in services to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":134905,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[119,121,120,62282,62283,7939,28,14289,736],"class_list":{"0":"post-134904","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-allentown","8":"tag-allentown","9":"tag-allentown-headlines","10":"tag-allentown-news","11":"tag-cutback","12":"tag-keystone","13":"tag-medicaid","14":"tag-pennsylvania","15":"tag-planned-parenthood","16":"tag-reading"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134904","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=134904"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/134904\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/134905"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=134904"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=134904"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-pa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=134904"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
