AbortionotherAI label
↓Restricts abortion accessmodel confidence 75%
Imposes extensive informed-consent, disclosure, recordkeeping, and disciplinary requirements specifically for IVF and assisted reproductive technology, including risks, success rates, alternatives, and embryo policies.
A health care provider may not perform in vitro fertilization, including ovarian stimulation, egg retrieval, fertilization, embryo biopsy, embryo storage, and embryo transfer, until each adult patient and, if applicable, both members of the commissioning couple have executed the informed consent form required under subsection (3).
Why the model tagged it this way: The bill is primarily an informed-consent and regulatory regime for IVF/ART that defines embryos, requires patient elections minimizing embryo loss, mandates single-embryo transfer discussions, treats selective reduction as abortion under ch. 390's 6-week limit (with exceptions preserved), and adds disciplinary grounds; these provisions substantively address abortion-related topics (personhood-ivf, bans-gestational-limits, exceptions, other) with the net effects shown. No provisions address firearms, transgender issues, or immigration enforcement.
