"Why Should You Care? How defunding Planned Parenthood could affect you: * If you don’t have insurance, you may have to pay for a doctor’s visit to receive a prescription for birth control and pay full price at the pharmacy for it. * Be careful! Without easily available screenings, counseling and treatment, the transmission of STDs and HIV may rise. * Your daughter, niece, or younger cousin (and her boyfriend) may lose a free place to receive counseling, birth control, and testing. * If you are low income and/or without insurance, you may have to pay the full price of STD screenings, which can cost $85 to $220 for each type. That doesn’t include the cost of the doctor’s visit, which can be another $200. * You will have to visit a private practice for prenatal health care and, if you don’t have insurance, pay full price. * Depending on the location, you may lose access to free or reduced cost general services like anemia testing, cholesterol screening, diabetes screening, physical exams, flu vaccines, help with quitting smoking, high blood pressure screening, tetanus vaccines, and thyroid screening. * If you are an OB/GYN, your number of patients may increase."
