Cases listed in federal documents raise alarms around emergency pregnancy care, especially in states with strict abortion laws
Archived version: https://archive.ph/TB76f
One woman miscarried in the restroom lobby of a Texas emergency room as front desk staff refused to admit her to the hospital.
Another woman learned that her fetus had no heartbeat at a Florida hospital, the day after a security guard turned her away from the facility. And in North Carolina, a woman gave birth in a car after an emergency room couldn’t offer an ultrasound, and the baby later died.
Absolutely horrific.
I feel like that’s against EMTALA laws
I just read about it, and you seem to be right. Thank you for this.
