Planned Parenthood shuts down three Michigan facilities after $5.6 million loss– www.lifesitenews.com

Three Planned Parenthood facilities will close in Michigan as the one-year, temporary defunding of abortion vendors took a toll on its profits.

Planned Parenthood of Michigan said that the closures were driven by “$5.6 million in uncompensated and undercompensated care.”

The three closed locations in Lansing, Warren, and Livonia did not commit abortions at their facilities, though they did refer for dangerous chemical abortion drugs. The closure of these facilities further shows that abortion is a moneymaker for Planned Parenthood while some other services are not.

While the one-year defunding of Planned Parenthood expired on July 4 of this year, the effects of it in just 365 days illustrate the importance of extending the cuts. Planned Parenthood also cited its exclusion from Title X “family planning” funds as a reason for its financial losses.

“For decades, federal family planning funding and reimbursement for patient care helped Planned Parenthood expand access across the state,” Paula Greear, CEO of Planned Parenthood of Michigan, stated in a news release.
