ACOG To Stop Accepting Federal Funding For All Programs
Axios (8/1, Goldman) reports that the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists “is cutting financial ties with the federal government, citing...administration policies it says prevent it from providing evidence-based guidance.”

The decision “appears to be the first time a medical society has divested itself over conditions the administration has placed on government contractors and grant recipients.” In a statement, the college said, “Recent changes in federal funding laws and regulations significantly impact ACOG’s program goals, policy positions, and ability to provide timely and evidence-based guidance and recommendations for care.” It adds, “We remain fully committed to this critical work and will allocate our own resources to continue it in a way that is centered on patient needs and grounded in evidence.”
