Email
from Judy Mohr Peterson of ODHS outlining the money trail of abortion
payments.
Dave,
Per our phone conversation, here is the response to your inquiry.
I've
included the inquiry as well as a reference.
Phone Inquiry:
Dave Brownlow Life Support (503) 307-3851 has a list of woman's health
clinics sent by Erinn Kelley-Siel to Senator George. He is asking
for
the actual dollars paid to the following women's health clinics for
either 01-03 or 03-05
Dollars paid to the following centers for state fiscal years 2001/02
through 2002/03:
Lovejoy SurgiCenter: $ 731,448
Downtown Women's Center $ 682,743
Columbia Planned Parenthood $ 363,232
Bours Health Center - Forest Grove $ 311,116
Women's Care Association of Lane County $ 106,655
These dollars represent the actual dollars paid to these specific
clinics for induced abortions for the 01-03 biennium. Since the
03-05
biennium is still in progress, information for the entire current 03-05
biennium is not yet available. As noted in the information provided
to
Sen. George regarding these clinics, they provide around 90% of all
induced abortions. However, payments to these clinics are less than
90%, since payments for ancillary services, such as laboratory services,
are paid to separate business entities.
