[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.
