Access to abortion medication is available via telehealth.
For those who need out-of-state care, however, the cost of abortion may be as high as $30,000.
While costs have increased in places with bans, states like California and New York allow telehealth appointments for medication abortion, reducing travel time and the cost of abortion care.
"What would have been a cost of $5,000 turned into $10,000 just for abortion care because it had to be in a hospital," she says.
In April 2023, the Supreme Court maintained access to mifepristone, but additional cases could be brought to the Supreme Court in future terms.
