The Department of Health and Human Services cited requirements on medical facilities in the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA).
The law requires medical facilities to determine whether a person seeking treatment may be in labor or whether they face an emergency health situation - or one that could develop into an emergency - and to provide treatment.
The department said emergency conditions include"ectopic pregnancy, complications of pregnancy loss, or emergent hypertensive disorders, such as preeclampsia with severe features."
