Bill overview
This bill establishes the Reproductive Health Emergency Preparedness Program (RHEPP) to expand access to reproductive and sexual health care in California’s emergency departments. The program will provide grants to hospitals and clinics to improve services like miscarriage treatment, contraception, and abortion care. It aims to address shortages of reproductive health providers and support emergency departments in meeting the needs of patients, particularly in regions with limited access to care. The program will be overseen by the Department of Health Care Access and Information in collaboration with California-based organizations.
