Establish annual reporting requirements of infants born alive
House Bill 723 establishes annual reporting requirements for medical facilities where an infant is born alive following an abortion or attempted abortion. These facilities must submit a yearly report to the Department of Public Health and Human Services (DPHHS) by February 28, detailing information such as the infant's gestational age, medical actions taken, and outcomes. The DPHHS is authorized to impose civil fines for late or incomplete reports. Furthermore, the DPHHS must compile and publish an aggregate annual report of this data by June 30, ensuring that no individual can be identified.

MINOR
The bill adds a requirement for the Health and Human Services department to publish an annual report on abortions resulting in live births by June 30. It renumbers the reporting and penalty subsections, clarifying that a report must still be filed even if no infants were born alive. The changes also update the codification instructions to reflect the new section numbering.
Scope change
The bill's scope remains focused on abortion reporting, but the requirements are now explicitly tied to the publication of an annual report on live births rather than just the number of infants born alive.
REQUIREMENT
Added a mandate for the department to publish an annual report by June 30 detailing the aggregate number of abortions resulting in a live birth.
