 4 practice may prescribe and order medications approved by the federal
 5 food and drug administration for the purposes of inducing abortion or
 6 expelling a miscarriage.
 7 (b) Prior to dispensing abortion medication, the pharmacist shall:
 8 (i) provide a risk assessment questionnaire, developed by the commis-
 9 sioner of health in consultation with the commissioner, to be reviewed
 10 by the pharmacist to identify any known risk factors; and
 11 (ii) provide a fact sheet, developed by the commissioner of health
 12 that includes but is not limited to, the clinical considerations and
 13 recommendations for use of abortion medication, the appropriate method
 14 for using abortion medication, information on the importance of follow-
 15 up health care, and health care referral information.
 16 (c) No pharmacist shall dispense abortion medication under this subdi-
 17 vision without receiving training satisfactory to the commissioner.
 18 (d) Nothing in this subdivision shall prevent a pharmacist from refus-
 19 ing to prescribe or dispense an order of abortion medication pursuant to
 20 this subdivision if, in their professional judgment, potential adverse
 21 effects, interactions or other therapeutic complications could endanger
 22 the health of the patient.
 23 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
