HCS/HBs 1307 & 1313 - This act amends the current waiting period for having an abortion from twenty-four hours to seventy-two hours.

This act also requires the physician who is to perform or induce an abortion or a qualified professional to show the pregnant woman a video created by the Department of Health and Senior Services containing all of the required informed consent provisions prior to performing or inducing the abortion.

This act is substantially similar to SS/SB 519 (2013).
