HB1667

Creates the "Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act" to ensure rights and protections for children born alive after an abortion.

The "Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act" establishes rights and protections for children born alive after an abortion. It mandates health care providers to exercise professional skill, care, and diligence to preserve the child's life and health. The act also ensures that children born alive are immediately transported and admitted to a hospital. It allows for civil liability for those who cause the death of a child born alive during or after an abortion. The act further prohibits exculpatory agreements that would otherwise limit liability for such deaths.
