Three days after the state told the healthcare provider it planned to terminate its Medicaid contracts, Texas investigators arrived without warning at Planned Parenthood facilities on Thursday and demanded documents.
At a news conference in Austin, Ken Lambrecht, the chief executive of Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas, said that the appearance of state officials at offices in San Antonio, Dallas and Houston was “a politically motivated … fishing expedition” for information including unnecessary details such as the home addresses of employees and their salaries.
The organisation said it was given 24 hours to turn over thousands of pages by the Texas Office of Inspector General, a division of the Texas Health and Human Services Commission.
