TxPEP has partnered with UCSF to initiate a study to learn more about how clinical care has changed since Roe v. Wade was overturned. The purpose of this study is to collect stories of clinical care that was different from the usual standard due to new laws since June 2022.
This is an ongoing study. To read the first publication, “Care Post-Roe: Documenting cases of poor-quality care since the Dobbs decision,” please click here.
Examples include:
Delayed provision of abortion care for people whose health may be compromised by continuing the pregnancy (including young adolescents)
Delayed provision of abortion care for people whose health may be compromised by continuing the pregnancy (including young adolescents)
Delayed management of ectopic pregnancy
Delayed treatment for spontaneous pregnancy loss and preterm premature rupture of membranes
Difficulty providing standard-of-care treatment due to the concern of causing an abortion, regardless of whether the patient was pregnant or not (e.g., chemotherapy, methotrexate, or misoprostol for a non-abortion indication)
Please submit your story if you…
Are a health care provider who was involved in any part of the care of the patient
Are any member of the health care team—physician, nurse, nurse practitioner, midwife, physician assistant, social worker, pharmacist, psychologist, or other allied health professional
Cared for the patient at any point—either initially or possibly after they traveled to another state
At the link below, you will be able to submit de-identified information about the case. You may type in your responses or record a voice memo describing the case.
