Post-Roe: Implications for the Practice of Medicine in Texas (ETHICS)
Just as the structure of a cell, organ, or bone impacts its function, the law provides structure that influences how the health care system functions. Osteopathic physicians practicing in the post-ROE world face new legal challenges, not the least of which is understanding what the law is. To dispel confusion and clarify the issues, this session will contextualize Roe v. Wade, summarizing how it arose, evolved, and was ultimately overturned in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization. The session will examine potential implications for those practicing medicine in Texas, now, and in the future.
