Research notes

  • Federal Register full text “abortion training” since 2025-01-20 returns two documents, both Medicare payment rules where the phrase appears in a graduate-medical-education payment discussion.
  • The route that would carry such a communication - a Dear Colleague letter or OCR guidance on hhs.gov - refused to open for us.
