Introduced Text

Rhode Island H7185 allows medication abortion prescription drug labels to list the healthcare practice instead of the individual dispenser.

Rhode Island H7185 amends the Protections for Healthcare Providers Act to allow the prescription label for medication abortion prescription drugs to include the name of the dispensing healthcare practice instead of the name of the individual dispenser. This change aims to protect the privacy of healthcare providers involved in prescribing these drugs. The act defines "medication abortion prescription drugs" as substances used in medical treatment to induce the termination of a pregnancy, including mifepristone and misoprostol. The amendment takes effect upon passage.
