Amend the bill, as and if amended, SECTION 1, by striking Section 44-41-670(B) and inserting:

(B) A physician who performs a medical procedure as described in subsection (A) shall declare, in a written document, that the medical procedure was necessary, by reasonable medical judgment, to prevent the death of the pregnant woman , or to prevent the serious risk of a substantial and irreversible physical impairment of a major bodily function of the pregnant woman, or for any reason that could risk the woman's health. In the document, the physician shall specify the pregnant woman's medical condition that the medical procedure was asserted to address and the medical rationale for the physician's conclusion that the medical procedure was necessary to prevent the death of the pregnant woman or to prevent the serious risk of a substantial and irreversible impairment of a major bodily function of the pregnant woman.
