Compare Early Medical Abortion Equality of Access and the Telemedical Imperative by Jordan A. Parsons, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Telemedicine has recently become a key focus of healthcare systems globally, heavily influenced by the COVID-19 pandemic and the increased need for remote treatment. Implementing telemedicine can bring myriad benefits for both patients and providers and has the potential to make a huge impactby improving access to abortion care. In both the United Kingdom and United States, abortion is heavily regulated - exceptionally so when compared to other routine healthcare. This regulation has had the impact of exacerbating the social and geographical circumstances that can make access to abortion clinics difficult. This book examines early medical abortion provided by telemedicine, alongside the access barriers created by laws in the US and UK. It critically appraises a series of developments in this rapidly evolving subject providing an up to date and well-informed analysis. In doing so, it argues that thereis a moral imperative to make the necessary regulatory changes that would enable the provision of telemedical early medical abortion. | Early Medical Abortion Equality of Access and the Telemedical Imperative by Jordan A.
