HB 410 prohibits Medicaid from paying for abortion services provided by specific abortion clinics or providers. This bill directly affects low-income Medicaid recipients who seek abortions at those designated facilities and the providers who would lose Medicaid reimbursement for such services. The key provision, added as section 5162.09 of the Revised Code, bans Medicaid funds from being paid to providers meeting certain criteria. As a result, abortions performed at these providers would no longer be covered by Medicaid, requiring patients to pay the full cost out-of-pocket or seek care elsewhere.
HB 104 would designate February 14 each year as "Cardiovascular Health Awareness Day" by adding a new section (5.2540) to Ohio's Revised Code. This bill creates a symbolic state observance without imposing new requirements on individuals, businesses, or healthcare providers. The designation aims to encourage public awareness and educational activities focused on heart health during February. It directly affects Ohio's official calendar and serves as a tool for community organizations to promote cardiovascular health initiatives.
