Is it legal to have a late term therapeutic termination of pregnancy?

Yes, in some states, termination of pregnancy is allowed at any time during a woman's pregnancy to protect her health or when the fetus is affected by a genetic defect or abnormality.

To perform a late term therapeutic termination of pregnancy for fetal indications, Grace Medical Care reviews any medical evidence that the fetus is affected by any of the following:

• A genetic defect
• A severe deformity
• A serious abnormality

Alternatively, we may also perform the termination of pregnancy if it is necessary to protect the health of the woman.

Grace Medical Care will individually review each request for our service on a case-by-case basis.
