The US Supreme Court's 1973 Roe v Wade decision had clear implications for American women's reproductive rights and physician ability to carry out patient choices. Its effect on physician abortion training was less apparent. In an effort to increase patient access to abortions after Roe, provision shifted from hospitals to nonhospital clinics. However, these procedures and patients were taken out of the medical education realm, and physicians became vulnerable to intimidation. The consequent provider shortage created an unexpected barrier to abortion access. Medical Students for Choice was founded in 1993 to increase abortion-training opportunities for medical students and residents. Its mission ensures that motivated medical students will learn and a growing number of physicians will commit to comprehensive abortion provision.
美国最高法院 1973 年的 Roe v. Wade 裁决对美国女性的生殖权利和医生执行患者选择的能力产生了明确的影响。但其对医生堕胎培训的影响并不明显。为了在 Roe 之后增加患者获得堕胎的机会，规定从医院转移到非医院诊所。然而，这些程序和患者被排除在医学教育领域之外，医生容易受到恐吓。由此产生的提供者短缺成为获得堕胎的意外障碍。医学生选择组织成立于 1993 年，目的是增加医学生和住院医师的堕胎培训机会。其使命是确保有积极性的医学生会学习，并且越来越多的医生会致力于全面提供堕胎服务。
