The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 256L.03, subdivision 1, to restrict the use of public funds for abortion coverage under MinnesotaCare. It specifies that public funds may only be used for abortion services in certain circumstances: when the life of the woman is at risk, when there is a substantial and irreversible impairment of a major bodily function, or in cases of rape or incest.

Additionally, the bill modifies the existing language regarding covered health services by removing previous subsections and reorganizing the structure. The changes aim to clarify the conditions under which abortion services can be funded, thereby limiting the scope of public financial support for such procedures under the MinnesotaCare program.
