Requiring that certain written information be provided to patients when a physician or healthcare provider administers or prescribes any medicine or drug for the purpose of inducing an abortion.
HB 2353 requires physicians and healthcare providers in Kansas to provide patients with a specific written notice when prescribing or administering medication for an abortion. The notice informs patients that they and their families may hold the medication manufacturer, distributor, or provider financially accountable for complications, side effects, or failed medication, and that providers must disclose known complications. It also states that patients seeking emergency care for complications can disclose the medication use without facing criminal or civil penalties. This bill directly affects patients receiving medication abortions and healthcare providers who prescribe or administer such drugs in Kansas. The notice text is mandated verbatim in the bill's section 1(a).
