In a stunning and totally unforeseen occurrence, Texas fucks over women in their new healthcare plan.

Flaws found in new Texas women’s health provider list

.. a review of the list by the Tribune-Herald found many of the doctors aren’t actually participating or won’t take new patients through the program.

For example, Waco Cardiology Associates is included on the list. But an official at the heart doctors’ office said they obviously are not participants in the program.

The program’s key services include contraceptives, cervical cancer screenings and sexually transmitted disease screening and treatment, none of which are offered at Waco Cardiology Associates.

The list generated by the state’s website also includes a handful of emergency medicine physicians from Waco’s two hospitals.

Although such doctors theoretically could handle family planning needs, neither hospital wants to encourage women to seek that type of care in an expensive emergency setting.

The list also includes a few physicians who either no longer work in Waco or who have changed specialties.

For example, one physician who used to practice family medicine is on the list, even though she now only does wound care work.
