Summary
The bill obligates any health‑care practitioner present at a live birth to provide the same professional care as for any other newborn, no matter how the birth happened. It creates civil and disciplinary remedies if that care is not given and lets courts keep the identities of the pregnant person private. The measure is intended to protect the health and life of infants born alive and hold providers accountable.
