We applaud Integrating the Healthcare Enterprises (IHE) efforts, in conjunction with the Office of Population Affairs, to develop a method for collecting and exchanging important family planning data in a systemic and structured way, and we are grateful for the opportunity to comment on IHEs proposed Family Planning Profile. Health information technology (health IT) is a foundational component of a more patient-centered, effective and efficient health care system in which women and their health care providers have access to the information they need anytime, anywhere. We write to urge you to include Senator McCaskills bill, the TRICARE Moms Improvement Act of 2014 (S. 1994), in the FY 2015 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). This legislation would require the TRICARE program to cover breastfeeding support, supplies and counseling for breastfeeding mothers in military families, including women in the uniformed services and women who are military dependents. We write in support of the Access to Contraception for Women Servicemembers and Dependents Act of 2014. This bill ensures that all servicemembers and their dependents who rely on the military for health care have comprehensive contraceptive coverage and family planning counseling. We write to urge you to take immediate action to correct the unduly restrictive implementation of the Helms Amendment by issuing guidance to USAID and the State Department to allow abortion services in the cases of rape, incest, and life endangerment. Such action is necessary to safeguard the lives and health of women in developing countries served by U.S. foreign assistance.

As you develop Fiscal Year (FY) 2015 appropriations for the Departments of Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and related agencies, as members of the Family Planning Coalition we respectfully request that you provide $327 million in funding for the Title X family planning program. We write to urge you to include Senator McCaskills bill, the TRICARE Moms Improvement Act of 2014 (S. 1994), in the FY 2015 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). This legislation would require the TRICARE program to cover breastfeeding support, supplies and counseling for breastfeeding mothers in military families, including women in the uniformed services and women who are military dependents. We are pleased to submit the following comments in response to the Healthy Pennsylvania 1115 Waiver released on February 19, 2014. Pennsylvanias 1115 waiver for Healthy Pennsylvania is deeply flawed. Under the pretext of expanding coverage through premium assistance, Pennsylvania is seeking to roll back benefits for current Medicaid beneficiaries. We, support the health and right of immigrate women. We write to express our strong opposition to proposals to restrict access to abortion care for women in U.S. immigration and Customs Enforcement [ICT] detention. We are committed to protecting and improving womens health. We are pleased to submit these comments in response to the Request for Information Regarding Provider Non-Discrimination jointly released by the Department of Health and Human Services, Department of Labor, and Department of Treasury (Departments).1 As the Departments develop regulations to implement the provider non-discrimination provision established by section 2706(a) of the Public Health Service Act (PHSA), as added by section 1201 of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), we urge the Departments to create standards that ensure women have access to covered health services and womens health
