The proposed bill establishes new legal requirements regarding the care of infants who are born alive, defining "born alive" and "infant" and mandating that all such infants receive appropriate medical care. It prohibits any person from denying nourishment or medical treatment to a born alive infant and requires health care providers to take necessary steps to preserve the life of any infant born alive during an abortion procedure. The bill also stipulates that any born alive infant is to be treated as a legal person under state law, ensuring they have the same rights to medical care and treatment as any other individual.

Additionally, the bill introduces mandatory reporting for health care practitioners who witness violations of these provisions, establishes criminal penalties for those who intentionally harm a born alive infant, and allows for civil remedies for women affected by such violations. A task force is created to monitor born alive births and report findings to the governor and legislature, while the Department of Health is tasked with conducting monthly inspections of facilities that provide elective abortions to ensure compliance with the new regulations.
