The travel-related provision in Biden's executive order will direct his health secretary to consider inviting states to apply for Medicaid waivers when treating patients who cross state lines for reproductive health services.
A senior administration official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to preview Biden’s actions, declined to share details on what a waiver would look like but said it would target low-income women served by Medicaid and help cover certain costs.
Biden, who is isolating because he continues to test positive for the coronavirus, is expected to sign the executive order ahead of Vice President Harris’s first meeting of an interagency task force on reproductive health access.
Biden referred last month to what he called “the Supreme Court’s terrible, extreme and, I think, so totally wrongheaded decision.”
