Establish annual reporting requirements of infants born alive
This bill requires medical facilities in Montana to submit annual reports to the Department of Public Health and Human Services detailing infants born alive following an abortion or attempted abortion. The reports must include information such as gestational age, medical actions taken to preserve life, survival outcomes, and medical conditions of the infants, with a deadline of February 28 each year. Facilities that fail to submit reports on time may face civil fines up to $500 per 30-day delay, and the department can seek court orders to enforce compliance. The department is also required to publish an annual aggregate report by June 30 showing the total number of abortions resulting in live births, while ensuring individual facility data remains anonymous.
