[Indiana] Hospitals close-lipped on post-rape abortion policies

Hoosiers seeking abortions after rape can legally access the procedure at hospitals up to 10 weeks post-fertilization. It’s one of several narrow exceptions built into the ban, which went into effect this month following an unsuccessful legal challenge.

But in a survey of eight of the state’s largest hospital systems, just one didn’t immediately rule out post-rape abortions — though it included few details on its policies.

Three — all religiously affiliated — said they do not perform abortions in cases of rape. Two did not respond to requests for comment and two declined to comment on their specific policies.

This state needs to get it's shit together. I can't stand the regressive laws.
