Indiana Attorney General Files Lawsuit Against Hospital System for Violating Privacy of Ohio Girl Seeking Abortion

Indiana's attorney general has filed a lawsuit against the state's largest hospital system, accusing it of violating patient privacy laws by allowing a doctor to publicly share the story of a 10-year-old Ohio girl who traveled to Indiana for an abortion. The lawsuit comes after the doctor's account became a focal point in the abortion debate following the Supreme Court's overturning of Roe v. Wade. The hospital system denies violating privacy laws and states that it will respond directly to the attorney general's office.
