Abortion - As introduced, states that the report a physician is required to submit to the commissioner of health after performing an abortion may be submitted electronically. - Amends TCA Title 36; Title 37; Title 38; Title 39; Title 40; Title 41; Title 55; Title 62; Title 63 and Title 71.
SB 2482 allows physicians in Tennessee to submit required abortion reports electronically to the commissioner of health, instead of on paper. This bill amends multiple sections of Tennessee law (including Title 39) to add electronic submission as a permitted method for the existing reporting requirement. The change applies to physicians who perform abortions and must file these reports after the procedure. It does not alter the content, timing, or necessity of the reports - only the submission method.
