Medicaid Funding Resumes for Planned Parenthood, but 30 Clinics Won't Reopen

Medicaid reimbursements to Planned Parenthood and two regional abortion providers resumed July 5, 2026, after a one-year federal cutoff written into Trump's H.R. 1 law. Yet nearly 30 of roughly 600 clinics closed during the freeze, with service volumes dropping 20-25%. Maine Family Planning and Florida's Planned Parenthood affiliate have signaled closures will remain permanent—strategic decisions, not temporary measures—suggesting providers expect future defunding attempts.
