HB 1304 Missouri House · 2025 Regular Session

Modifies provisions relating to abortion

HB 1304 redefines key abortion-related terms in Missouri law, including defining "unborn child" as beginning at conception and expanding "medical emergency" to include risks of "substantial and irreversible physical impairment." It adds abortion facilities to reporting requirements for health care-associated infection data, mandating they submit patient and financial data to the Department of Health and Senior Services. The bill also establishes new definitions for terms like "Down Syndrome" and "gestational age," while modifying existing legal language around abortion procedures. These changes primarily affect abortion facilities, healthcare providers, and the Department of Health, shifting how abortion-related data is collected and defined under state law.
