| 2021-21542 | Ensuring Access to Equitable, Affordable, Client-Centered, Quality Family Planning Services | Rule | The Office of Population Affairs (OPA) in the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health issues this final rule to revise the regulations that govern the Title X family planning program (authorized by Title X of the Public Health Service Act) by readopting the 2000 regulations, with several revisions to ensure access to equitable, affordable, client-centered, quality family planning services for clients, especially low-income clients. The effect of this 2021 final rule is to revoke the requirements of the 2019 regulations, including removing restrictions on nondirective options counseling and referrals for abortion services and eliminating requirements for strict physical and financial separation between abortion-related activities and Title X project activities, thereby reversing the negative public health consequences of the 2019 regulations. OPA also makes several revisions to the 2000 regulations to increase access to equitable, affordable, client-centered, quality family planning services. | 2021-10-07 | 2021 | 10 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2021/10/07/2021-21542/ensuring-access-to-equitable-affordable-client-centered-quality-family-planning-services | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2021-10-07/pdf/2021-21542.pdf | Health and Human Services Department | 221 | The Office of Population Affairs (OPA) in the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health issues this final rule to revise the regulations that govern the Title X family planning program (authorized by Title X of the Public Health Service Act) by... |
