Minnesota SF3518 modifies care requirements for infants born alive after an abortion, including reporting and recording requirements for abortion.

Minnesota SF3518 amends state statutes to modify care requirements for infants born alive following an abortion. It mandates that such infants be fully recognized as human beings and provided with immediate protection under the law. The bill requires medical personnel to take all reasonable measures to preserve the life and health of these infants, including compiling appropriate medical records. If an infant is diagnosed with a condition incompatible with sustained life, the mother must be informed of available perinatal hospice services.
