The SAFE Training for OB-GYNs Act would amend federal health law to provide federal grants to medical training programs that offer reproductive health care education, including abortion care training, for doctors and health professionals who cannot receive such training in their home states due to state abortion restrictions. The grants would go to entities operating approved graduate medical residency programs and would be used to establish, expand, or support reproductive health training programs specifically for healthcare professionals forced to train elsewhere, as well as to reimburse their travel and related expenses. The legislation would authorize ten million dollars annually for five fiscal years from 2027 through 2031 to fund these grants. The bill directly affects obstetrics and gynecology training programs and medical professionals seeking reproductive health care education in states with restrictive abortion laws.
