relative to the collection and reporting of abortion statistics by health care providers and medical facilities.

This bill requires health care providers performing abortions to report specific anonymized data - including patient age, state of residence, abortion method, gestational age, and related prescriptions - to the medical facility where the procedure occurs. Medical facilities must then submit this aggregated information annually to the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services. The department will compile statistical reports on abortion procedures, maternal health, and gestational age, and provide an annual summary to the legislature. The law directly affects health care providers and medical facilities that perform abortions in New Hampshire, with no requirement for personally identifiable patient information.
