Midwives as Abortion Care Providers: Evidence from a National Survey of Early Career U.S. Midwives
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to investigate the involvement of early-career U.S. midwives in providing abortion care. Their analysis of a 2024 national survey revealed that 18.8% of respondents reported offering abortion services, with higher rates (26.0%) among those in states where abortion is legally permitted. The study highlights the role of early-career midwives in the abortion care workforce and suggests that their contributions vary based on policy context and individual provider characteristics.
