AI Summary

This bill aims to reduce fetal and infant mortality in Florida. It makes the following key changes: 1. Expands the purpose and requirements of the Comprehensive Statewide Tobacco Education and Use Prevention Program to focus on reducing tobacco use among pregnant women and women who may become pregnant, in addition to youth. 2. Requires the Department of Health to contract with local healthy start coalitions to establish fetal and infant mortality review committees in all regions of the state. These committees will review data, develop recommendations, and report their findings annually to the Department. 3. Adds new definitions related to abortion, including "fatal fetal abnormality" and "medical abortion." It prohibits physicians from performing abortions after 15 weeks of gestation, except in certain circumstances such as to save the mother's life or in cases of fatal fetal abnormality. 4. Revises reporting requirements for termination of pregnancy procedures, including requiring reports from physicians who perform abortions outside of medical facilities. 5.
