Bill > HB0480

This bill amends existing Utah law to allow individuals to request that their medical records reflect that an abortion was not elective if it was due to a miscarriage, a uniformly diagnosable and lethal fetal defect, rape or incest, or was medically indicated, meaning it was necessary to remove a deceased fetus, treat an ectopic pregnancy, avert the woman's death, or prevent serious physical risk to a major bodily function. Additionally, the bill clarifies the definition of "person" in the context of emergency care to align with another section of law and makes a technical correction to a reference regarding communicable disease treatment procedures, with all changes taking effect on May 6, 2026.
