Proposed TRAP Regulations
 

There is no good reason to impose such burdensome regulations requirements for clinic buildings that are unrelated to the services health centers provide and have no proven medical benefit. Medically inappropriate and unnecessarily burdensome regulations would restrict access to essential health care services for the women of Virginia and further marginalize young, low-income, uninsured and minority women by decreasing their health care options.
