Indiana Health Department to Release Abortion Records After Settlement
The Indiana Department of Health (IDOH) has settled a lawsuit with the anti-abortion group Voices for Life, agreeing to release Termination of Pregnancy Reports (TPRs) that detail individual abortions in the state. This settlement follows an executive order from Governor Mike Braun that mandated the release of these reports, which had previously been withheld due to patient confidentiality concerns. The reports will be made available upon request, with certain identifying information redacted to protect patient identities, though key details about the procedures will remain public. Voices for Life aims to use these reports to ensure compliance with Indiana's abortion laws, while critics argue that such disclosures could lead to harassment of healthcare providers. The legal battle began in 2022 and intensified after Indiana implemented a near-total abortion ban in late 2023. Attorney General Todd Rokita's stance that TPRs should not be treated as confidential medical records played a significant role in the lawsuit's outcome.
