Despite a constitutional right to legal abortion, residents of the unincorporated United States territory of Guam have no local access to abortion. Telehealth has the potential to address this need. However, current abortion restrictions in the Guamanian legal code in combination with the Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy requirements obstruct telehealth provision of medication abortion.
尽管美国关岛非建制地区的居民享有合法堕胎的宪法权利,但他们无法在当地获得堕胎服务。远程医疗有可能满足这一需求。然而,关岛法律代码中的现行堕胎限制,加上风险评估和缓解策略要求,阻碍了通过远程医疗提供药物流产服务。
