Illinois SB0165 mandates that women seeking an abortion after 8 weeks of gestation be offered an ultrasound and information about their pregnancy.

The Ultrasound Opportunity Act requires that at any facility where abortions are performed, a qualified person must offer women seeking an abortion after 8 weeks of gestation an opportunity to receive and view an active ultrasound of their unborn child. This offer must be made by the physician performing the abortion, the referring physician, or another qualified person. The woman's response to the offer must be documented. The Act aims to ensure women receive complete information about their pregnancy and provide informed consent before undergoing an abortion.
