Diminished choice

Article Abstract:

American women may now have the right to have abortion, but exercising that right is another matter altogether. For one, there are fewer doctors who can perform the operation since it is no longer a requirement in the curriculum. The cost is also prohibitive since Medicaid does not cover it.
