Health Care & Insurance

 

The Office of the New York State Attorney General safeguards the rights of health care consumers by investigating and taking enforcement action against insurers, providers, drug companies, and other parties that engage in fraudulent, misleading, deceptive, or illegal practices. The Health Care Helpline handles over 4,000 individual requests for assistance each year, helping patients get access to care, resolving problems with insurance companies and health care providers, and educating the public about the rights and protections available to them under health and consumer-protection laws.

In addition, we advocate for legislation and policy initiatives to enhance the rights of health care consumers and their ability to access quality, affordable care throughout the state.

Attorney General James Sues Anti-Abortion Group and 11 New York Crisis Pregnancy Centers for Promoting Unproven Abortion Reversal Treatment

May 3, 2024
Reproductive Health Care | New York State Attorney General
You can find a real abortion provider through the resources listed in this brochure.

Note

Many of these facilities promote an unproven “treatment” they call “abortion pill reversal.” Be advised that “abortion pill reversal” has not been accepted by any major medical association, demonstrated safe or effective through clinical trials, or approved by the FDA.

Action by other states Although abortion is legal in New York, many states have passed laws criminalizing or penalizing abortion within their borders. If you are in New York to legally have an abortion, protections include:New York will not return you to another state that wants to arrest you for a legal abortion you had in New York, unless the state claims that you illegally had the abortion outside New York.New York police cannot arrest you or anyone helping you in New York, help another state arrest you, or provide information about your abortion, unless there is a court-issued subpoena or warrant that is unrelated to the effort to penalize you for an abortion you received in New York.If you are prosecuted for having a legal abortion in New York, you can countersue for three times the damages and attorneys’ fees.These protections apply as long as the care took place in New York, and as long as law enforcement in New York can tell the out-of-state request is about abortion care (which may not be possible). New York cannot protect you for conduct outside the state.

Whistleblower Protection - NASA OIG
You can make a protected disclosure of classified information to the OIG, but the information may not be transmitted using the OIG’s unclassified hotline. For more information on how to properly provide classified information to the OIG, please contact the NASA Whistleblower Protection Coordinator.
HOW TO REPORT RETALIATION OR REPRISAL FOR BLOWING THE WHISTLE
No one should ever be subject to or threatened with reprisal for coming forward with a protected disclosure. It is unlawful for any personnel action to be taken against you because of your whistleblowing. If you believe you have been retaliated against for making a protected disclosure, you may file a retaliation complaint, under the guidelines below.
Information for NASA Employees
If you are a NASA employee, you may submit a retaliation complaint to the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC) or to the OIG by completing the OIG reprisal questionnaire and submitting to the OIG Hotline or your local OIG office. OSC has primary jurisdiction over retaliation complaints for most federal employees, including all NASA employees. OSC has unique authorities, including the ability to seek a temporary stay of a pending personnel action, and can seek to correct a retaliatory personnel action on your behalf. If you submit your complaint to the OIG, we will review it and let you know whether it is appropriate for the OIG to investigate or whether it should be referred to OSC or elsewhere.
Allegations of reprisal regarding EEO matters generally should be addressed through the EEO process.
Information for Employees of NASA Contractors, Subcontractors, Grantees, or Sub-grantees or Personal Services Contractors
If you are an employee of a NASA contractor, subcontractor, grantee, sub-grantee, or a NASA personal services contractor, you may submit a complaint by completing the OIG reprisal questionnaire and submitting to the OIG Hotline or your local OIG office. Under 10 U.S.C. § 4701, it is illegal for an employee of a NASA contractor, subcontractor, grantee, or sub-grantee or personal services contractor to be discharged, demoted, or otherwise discriminated against for making a protected disclosure.
Whistleblower Protection - NASA OIG
Employees who disclose matters to the OIG may do so freely without informing their supervisors. As a reminder, it is illegal for managers to retaliate against employees for bringing information to or cooperating with the OIG.
OIG investigators and auditors reside at NASA Headquarters and every center. Information about how to contact the OIG is available at https://oig.nasa.gov/contact/.

Additional information about whistleblower protections, including making protected disclosures and filing claims of reprisal for whistleblowing activities, can be accessed on the OSC website at: U.S. Office of Special Counsel
WHISTLEBLOWER RIGHTS AND PROTECTIONS
Whistleblowers perform an important service for the public and the NASA Office of Inspector General (OIG) when they report evidence of wrongdoing. All NASA employees, contractors, subcontractors, grantees, sub-grantees, and personal services contractors are protected from retaliation for making a protected disclosure . Reports concerning wrongdoing by NASA employees or within NASA programs can always be submitted directly to the OIG Hotline.
If you have any questions about any of the information on this web page, or are concerned that you have experienced retaliation for blowing the whistle, you may contact the NASA Whistleblower Protection Coordinator for additional information. You may also consult the web site of the U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC), or review this OSC pamphlet, Know Your Rights When Reporting Wrongs.
HOW TO MAKE A PROTECTED DISCLOSURE
It is unlawful for your employer to retaliate against you for making a “protected disclosure.” A disclosure is protected if it meets two criteria:

The disclosure must be based on a reasonable belief that wrongdoing has occurred. As explained in the chart below, the definition of wrongdoing varies slightly depending on your place of employment.
