Gynecologic Pain Management Study Act

This bill would require the Secretary of Health and Human Services to study barriers that keep health care providers from offering, and patients from getting, pain management during gynecologic procedures. The study would look at issues such as insurance coverage, training, and resources, and would include a review of existing research and new research if needed. The Secretary would have to consult with groups including patients, reproductive health care providers, medical societies, public health and health equity experts, and medical device makers. Within 24 months of the law taking effect, the Secretary would report findings and any recommendations to committees in the House and Senate.
