This bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, specifically section 256L.03, subdivision 1, to restrict the use of public funds for abortion coverage under MinnesotaCare. The new legal language specifies that public funds may only be used for abortion services in cases where the life of the woman is at risk, there is a substantial and irreversible impairment of a major bodily function, or the pregnancy results from rape or incest.

Additionally, the bill makes several adjustments to the existing language by deleting and renumbering certain subsections. The previous subsection (b) has been removed, and the subsequent subsections have been renumbered accordingly. This restructuring aims to clarify the provisions regarding covered health services while implementing the new restrictions on abortion funding.
