Session Description
This session will describe key federal and state laws, as well as common institutional policies, that brought us to this period where abortion care is severely restricted or banned. The impacts to the patient–physician relationship will be explored in addition to the moral distress described by some physicians. While there will be no roadmap, we will envision what the other side could look like.
