“The provisions of the Michigan bill, such as banning telemedicine for a medication abortion, often used by women in rural areas without easy access to a health-services provider, will likely be imitated by other states with Republican legislatures, said Guttmacher Institute policy analyst Elizabeth Nash. In a medication abortion, providers administer two FDA-approved pills—mifepristone and misoprostol—which when taken in succession are designed to terminate a pregnancy in its first nine weeks. The bill prohibits a doctor from consulting via a webcam as a woman takes the second pill, a method that had simplified the procedure for many rural women.”
