Prohibits Title X family planning grants from being awarded to entities that perform abortions, except in cases of rape, incest, or life-threatening.
The Title X Abortion Provider Prohibition Act amends Title X of the Public Health Service Act to prohibit the Secretary from providing assistance to any entity that performs or funds abortions. Exceptions are made for abortions resulting from rape or incest, or when a physician certifies that the woman's life is at risk due to a physical condition. Hospitals are exempt if they do not fund non-hospital entities that perform abortions. The Secretary must report annually on entities receiving grants and the number of abortions performed under exceptions.
