Reproductive Freedom for All Applauds New Biden-Harris Administration Privacy Rule Safeguarding Abortion Data
Washington, DC — Today, the Biden-Harris administration finalized a robust new privacy rule to safeguard privacy protections for reproductive health information, including for abortion. The rule expands HIPAA protections to people who seek, obtain, or provide abortion and other reproductive health care. The regulations will also prevent providers and insurers from having to turn over information to state officials investigating or prosecuting people providing abortion and offer additional protection for people crossing state lines for care.
Reproductive Freedom for All President and CEO Mini Timmaraju released the following statement:
“There’s no low that anti-abortion extremists won’t sink to in order to block access to abortion and other reproductive health care — including surveilling and punishing people who seek and provide abortion care. We’re grateful to the Biden-Harris administration for taking these actions. This rule is an important step in protecting reproductive freedom and ensuring all of us can make our own decisions about pregnancy and abortion.”
