Abortion pill.

So, I thought this interesting. I work for an insurance company. We cover abortions 100%. I got a call from a facility telling me virtual setting, for abortion and I was like what, is that the pill? Yes. So I asked some questions and thought it was valuable information. Hey Jane in NY, Ny... legit credited I ran the information. A real licensed provider. I asked so someone from out of state can call you. Yes he said but there are restrictions. I asked if it matter on state law and he said, that would be restrictions.

We are talking coded to not step on each others toes until we saw we were on the same side and that it is a valuable service.

Anyway, I felt good learning this information. I personally was not aware there was this possibility and I can see ways around with red state restrictions.

I had a provider call for benefits for a virtual setting (telemedicine visit) for an abortion so assumed it had to be a pill cause cant do a televist to perform an abortion. I asked if people outside of NY could use them he said yes, but there were restrictions.

I asked if restrictions were state laws and he said yes.But I can see working around that if need be.
