Okla. Stat. tit. 63, § 63-1-745.6

Public statistical report – Late fee.

A. Any physician who performs or induces or attempts to perform

or induce an abortion shall report to the State Department of

Health, on a schedule and in accordance with forms and rules and

regulations adopted and promulgated by the State Board of Health

that include:

1. If a determination of probable postfertilization age was

made, the probable postfertilization age determined and the method

and basis of the determination;

2. If a determination of probable postfertilization age was not

made, the basis of the determination that a medical emergency

existed;

3. If the probable postfertilization age was determined to be

twenty (20) or more weeks, the basis of the determination that the

pregnant woman had a condition which so complicated her medical

condition as to necessitate the abortion of her pregnancy to avert

her death or to avert serious risk of substantial and irreversible

physical impairment of a major bodily function, not including

psychological or emotional conditions; and

4. The method used for the abortion and, in the case of an

abortion performed when the probable postfertilization age was

determined to be twenty (20) or more weeks:

a. whether the method used was one that, in reasonable

medical judgment, provided the best opportunity for

the unborn child to survive, or

b. if such a method was not used, the basis of the

determination that termination of the pregnancy in

that manner would pose a greater risk either of the

death of the pregnant woman or of the substantial and

irreversible physical impairment of a major bodily

function, not including psychological or emotional

conditions, of the woman than would other available

methods.

B. By June 30 of each year, the State Department of Health

shall issue a public report providing statistics for the previous

calendar year compiled from all of the reports covering that year

submitted in accordance with this section for each of the items

listed in subsection A of this section. Each such report shall also

provide the statistics for all previous calendar years during which

this section was in effect, adjusted to reflect any additional

information from late or corrected reports. The State Department of

Health shall take care to ensure that none of the information
