This means that a federally- funded clinic would be cut off if it provided reproductive health services to teens without parental consent.
Parental consent is one provision for receiving a clinic's services.
If a teenage female went to a clinic, her parents would be notified five business days before services were provided. If the girl brought written consent with her, then she could receive services that day. Two other ways she could receive services would be by her state's law or a court decision. Both of these would not require parental consent, but would give publicity where it is unwanted. Economic Situation Would Affect Medical Care Since the clinics that would be affected by this amendment are federally- funded, the teens that go to these can't afford the services of private clinics.
