Services for pregnant patients in red states were already inferior. Now it's getting much worse.
, could be liable if they greenlight an abortion that’s deemed illegal by the state?
I think there is absolutely that risk. That’s why we’re seeing hospitals err on the more conservative side. Even if there are indications of infection already, the patient has to be really, really sick to fit within the exceptions. That’s why they’re making bad decisions from a health care perspective. The costs to the providers and hospital are so high.Before, if you didn’t act in the patient’s best interest, you could be at risk of liability.
Normally when you’re facing medical decisions, you’re worried about medical liability—you’re not worried about criminal liability. It’s such a change. If you followed the standard of care, you were pretty insulated. Criminalizing what has been an essential part of health care changes everything. Along with ethics committees, many hospitals have risk-management consultants and in-house counsel. How do they affect care for pregnant patients in an emergency?, if the patient had an incomplete miscarriage, or the pregnancy was failing, most of the time doctors made those decisions on their own without bringing these other actors in.is changing how doctors do care and changing the relationship between doctors and the institution.
A defense could be: Look, we thought we were complying with the law. The standard has been defined by the law, even though,, the standard was something else. Laws prohibiting abortions could be a defense. I don’t think we know how this is going to play out; that’s what’s so difficult for doctors. There’s no decision that doesn’t subject them torisk of liability. One is a risk of civil liability; the other is a risk of civil and criminal liability.
