Why this Matters
A large health system in Idaho alleges that it part of Idaho’s abortion ban is preempted by the federal Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act (EMTALA), which requires certain health care providers to offer stabilizing treatment to patients in emergency situations.
Potential Impact
EMTALA’s protections help ensure that pregnant women receive the emergency treatment they need when their health or life is in jeopardy. Without clear guidance, health care providers may be even more cautious about offering emergency abortion care until a woman’s life is at risk, leading to chaos and confusion and increasing the risk of dangerous complications.
