How much do family planning agencies charge for services?
Federal family planning laws require that services and supplies be provided on a sliding fee scale, based on income. However, family planning programs may ask for a donation. Bills to minors obtaining confidential services must be based on the resources of the minor and clients must not be denied services because of the inability to pay. Services are provided to Medicaid eligible, non-Medicaid eligible and privately insured clients. Family planning regulations also require agencies to assure client confidentiality.
