The physician was cleared of violating privacy rights by the hospital's own internal investigation a long, long time ago. This is not about the facts of the matter for the Indiana AG, but about making sure these cases don't get discussed -- it's about the chilling effect.

And it has had a chilling effect, just not necessarily the one he was going for. The OB/Gyn had to hire her own 24/7 security, and the residents training with her watched all this happen.

[quote]SCOTT: I mean, our residents are devastated. I mean, they signed up to provide - I'm sorry - they signed up to provide comprehensive health care to women. And they are being told that they can't do that. And I think it will deeply impact how we recruit and retain people to our state.

YOUSRY: That could be trouble for patients in states like Indiana that already have a shortage of providers. One study suggests that nearly half of all rural counties in the U.S. do not have a single hospital with obstetric services. Dr. Scott says it'll also restrict the hands-on training she can offer doctors in abortion and managing miscarriages. Some programs may send residents to states without abortion restrictions, but that could be a logistical nightmare. All of this has given Beatrice Soderholm a lot to think about. Soderholm was certain she wanted to practice in Indiana. But lately, family in Minnesota have asked why she would stay.[/quote]

If you are put in an impossible situation as a provider, it's not like the country has an overabundance of trained clinical practitioners. You can work somewhere else where you are needed just as much but also left free to do the job you were trained to do, without having to hire security. Without hoping there will be someone to give good legal counsel at 2am, and without wondering if you are going to be able to do the job you were trained to do.

This is what red states are facing.[/quote]
