The Biden administration has said that such denials of care violate the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act or EMTALA, a law that requires hospitals to provide emergency care to any patient. The new portal is designed to make reporting denials of care easier for patients and help CMS, which enforces the federal law, to investigate patient claims. “We want to make sure that everyone knows their rights and can take action to help make sure the health care system is safe for everyone,” CMS Administrator Chiquita Brooks-LaSure said in a statement. The application of EMTALA to abortions is currently at the center of a Supreme Court case that will weigh whether an exception should be made in certain cases for emergency abortions.
