AI Summary

This bill modifies multiple sections of Arizona state law related to abortion procedures, expanding the definition of health care providers who can perform abortions and making various changes to informed consent requirements, reporting procedures, and regulations for abortion clinics. Key provisions include broadening the definition of health care providers who can perform abortions to include nurse practitioners, certified nurse midwives, and physician assistants, in addition to physicians; removing previous restrictions on physician assistants performing abortions; updating reporting requirements for abortion procedures to include these additional types of health care providers; and modifying informed consent protocols. The bill also repeals some existing sections of law related to abortion and updates definitions throughout the existing statutes. These changes appear to standardize and potentially expand who can provide abortion services in Arizona while maintaining existing requirements for patient consent, medical reporting, and safety protocols. The bill does not fundamentally alter the core legal framework for abortion in the state but makes technical and procedural modifications to existing law.
