Michigan Bill Amending Abortion Complication Reporting Requirements 2014 (SB 840)

SB 840 would have amended physician reporting requirements for complications resulting from abortion to require that any individual having knowledge that a woman suffered a complication as a result of an abortion fill out a notice of compliance form to be developed by the Department of Health. The bill states that the notice of compliance form must be transmitted to the physician or health facility where the woman received treatment for the complication, to the physician who performed the abortion, and to the Department of Health.

The bill states that the form must contain a variety of information as detailed in the bill but may not contain any identifying information about the woman who obtained the abortion.
