In 2023, 24,355 abortions occurred in Massachusetts, with 5,744 (almost 1 in 4) of them performed through telehealth. However, only 1,397 of those telehealth abortions were for Massachusetts residents, meaning that a significant number of abortions were performed for out-of-state women.
This troubling trend raises concerns about the expansion of telehealth abortions, which are now accessible across the country, potentially impacting women beyond Massachusetts and leaving fewer safeguards for vulnerable mothers and their unborn children.
