HB 479 Abortion; systematic reporting.
Introduced by: Richard H. Black | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Systematic reporting of abortion. Requires physicians performing abortions or treating the complications of induced abortions to report detailed information on forms prepared and distributed by the Board of Health. The information will be collected for the purpose of ensuring compliance with statutory requirements for obtaining an abortion. In addition, the Board must issue a public report annually providing the same detailed information for the most recent year and all previous calendar years, adjusted to reflect any additional information from late or corrected reports. Filing fees to defray the costs of collecting, analyzing, and storage of the data will be charged by the Board. Physicians failing to report in a timely manner will be subject to a late fee of $500 for each additional 30 days that the forms are overdue and the Board may pursue the penalties or other relief provided in § 32.1-27 in any case in which a physician has failed to file the required forms within one year or has filed incomplete forms.
