    In reviewing the case study of a thirty-year-old mother with four young children we can expect her annual costs for health care services to be exponential, and unfortunately health care costs are continually rising. Although this mother does not have any special health problems or any special health concerns for her children, there are many variables to account for on a yearly basis. It is important that she chooses the best health care option for her, and her family that isn 't going to become an imposition. This family has many options to consider, and many benefits that they can consider, in order to assure that health care does not become a burden, rather than an asset to keeping her family healthy.…

    Planned Parenthood is a public health clinic that provides sex ed, birth control, abortion, and plenty of other services. The program is constantly under constant attack for being a waste of government funding and supporting abortions which are considered immoral by a large chunk of America. But Joseph E. Potter and Kari White argue that Planned Parenthood shouldn’t be defunded by Congress because of how negative the outcomes are that have been brought about in the past. Potter and White convince others by using rhetorical devices such as statistics and anecdotes.…

Subjects such as parent-teen relationships, puberty 101 for parents, sex, the internet, and texting were just a few of the topics.

    Planned Parenthood is a non-profit organization founded by Margaret Sanger in 1916. Planned Parenthood began as the first birth control clinic in America (“Planned Parenthood | Official Site”). It began in Brooklyn, New York, and it was opened with Sanger, her sister, and a friend (“Planned Parenthood | Official Site”). Sanger’s original missions for Planned Parenthood were, providing contraception and other health services to women and men, funding research on birth control and educating specialists and the public about the results, and advancing access to family planning in the United States and around the world (“Planned Parenthood | Official Site”). Planned Parenthood has always seen people opposing it, from the very beginning when police raided the clinic, and Sanger, her sister and her friend were arrested, to now with Republicans and “pro-life” activists trying to defund and bring an end to the organization (“Planned Parenthood | Official Site”). Planned Parenthood is not the monster that republicans and “pro-life” activists make it out to be, contrary to what they may think…

    Planned Parenthood has been in the news lately regarding controversial abortions, procedures of the tissues that result from abortions. Conservatives of the House of Representatives are trying again to stop federal assistances to Planned Parenthood. Oppositional views from both sides could lead to shutting down the government; because democrats would veemingly oppose any bill defunding the organization. This could result in Republicans loosing support in the 2016 elections, but many conservatives say that it’s a risk and fight worth taking on. However, there is a lot of criticism on why GOP decides now that they should try again to defund Planned Parenthood. They argue that the leaked videos this past summer and evaluation of negotiation and completing the new budget puts the conservatives in a spot to argue the money that is set aside for planned parenthood be given to another organization more deserving of the it.…

    Of the 2.7 million Americans who benefit from Planned Parenthood, a large majority come from low-income families or neighborhoods; consequently, over half of PPFA clinics are located in underrepresented sectors in order to cater to the needs of the impoverished and marginalized (Mitts & Attanasio). This accessibility is especially important in a time when the chief support of health care, hospitals and family doctors, are increasingly moving away from poorer areas, where the most needy often live. Planned Parenthood ventures to eliminate the apparent correlation between affluence and health through targeting low-income areas. Of those benefiting from PPFA, CNN Correspondents Goldshmidt and Strickland wrote, “Nearly 80% had incomes at or below 150% of the federal poverty level”, as cited in a March Government Accountability Office Report (Goldshmidt & Strickland). Those poverty-stricken and unable to afford health insurance are still able to receive services from Planned Parenthood at severely reduced prices based on income level and determined by Title X’s sliding discount fee scale. Title X is the only government-funded grant program dedicated strictly to family planning and reproductive health services for low-income and uninsured patients, and it allocates a quarter of its funding to Planned…

    Planned Parenthood provides a specific set of crucial services, focusing on the sexual reproductive health of women, unlike many other public health centers. This leads many women to turn to Planned Parenthood for services that benefit their basic health and well-being. In 2013, Planned Parenthood provided 10.6 million services to 2.7 million patients (“2013-2014 Annual Report” 17). The millions of people every year who need and use Planned Parenthood testifies to its important role in society. It is true that there are public health centers that women could turn to other than Planned Parenthood, but they would not be enough if Planned Parenthood were to disappear. As Sara Rosenbaum, a professor of health law and policy at George Washington University, explains, “You can’t end services for millions of women and overnight get a replacement in every community where they are needed” (Devi). Because of the specific set of services it provides, Planned Parenthood cannot be completely replaced by public health centers. Even though it only makes up 13% of Title X funded centers, it serves 36% of Title X patients (Cohen). Despite being greatly outnumbered by the number of other public health centers, Planned Parenthood still serves just as many people. The services Planned Parenthood provides are so crucial that women seek it out even though other health…
