Bill Summary
For legislation to further define health clinics. Public Health.
AI Summary
This bill aims to further define the term "clinic" in Massachusetts law, particularly in the context of healthcare facilities that perform abortions. The bill specifies that any entity that performs more than 10 abortions per year, regardless of how it is organized or advertised, would be considered a "clinic" under the law. This would subject such entities to additional regulations and requirements, with the goal of advancing the safety of women seeking to terminate a pregnancy.
