On March 12, 2025, the National Women’s Law Center, alongside 17 other organizations dedicated to advancing reproductive rights, health, and justice, joined an amicus brief to the U.S. Supreme Court in Medina v. Planned Parenthood South Atlantic. Our brief supports Planned Parenthood and their patients in their challenge to South Carolina’s attempt to exclude Planned Parenthood from the state Medicaid program and deny Medicaid beneficiaries the right to choose their own provider. We highlight that for Medicaid recipients—as for all individuals and communities—the right to receive care from a qualified medical provider with whom one is comfortable is vital to health, dignity, and self-determination—especially when seeking sexual and reproductive health care. Because Medicaid beneficiaries frequently experience discrimination and mistreatment in health care settings, it is particularly essential that they have the freedom to choose a provider offering high-quality care that meets their individual needs. And because there is a limited pool of trusted providers who accept Medicaid patients, excluding Planned Parenthood from the Medicaid program would leave many without meaningful choices for providers, if they can access care at all. For Medicaid recipients from communities of color, with disabilities, who identify as LGBTQ+, and from other groups that experience systemic discrimination in health care, terminating Planned Parenthood from South Carolina’s Medicaid program will impose particularly significant barriers. Finally, we emphasize that Medicaid beneficiaries must retain the ability to enforce their rights under the Medicaid statute—another right at risk in this case—to ensure that those rights are meaningful and that they can have access to justice when those rights are violated.
