AI Summary
This bill amends the existing "Woman's Right-to-Know Act" to require additional information about the physician performing the abortion to be provided to the woman, including the physician's name, medical degree, employment history, disciplinary actions, malpractice insurance status, hospital privileges, and residency status. The bill also requires the physician to offer the woman the opportunity to view the ultrasound image and listen to the fetal heartbeat at no additional cost. Additionally, the bill requires certain signage and website disclosures to be provided to patients. If any provisions of the bill are temporarily or permanently enjoined, the remaining provisions will still be enforced.
