NY State participates in designing a form that abortion providers use for reporting to the state. The form requires: identification of the facility at which the abortion was performed and the physician performing the procedure; patient's demographic characteristics (eg, age, race, ethnicity, marital status and number of previous live births); gestational age, and abortion procedure used. NY STATE COLLECTS DATA ON THE FOLLOWING: Method of Payment, Complications, Reasons for Procedure (only if it's due to woman's health/life, fetal abnormality, and/or anything other than rape/incest)

Minors may consent to: contraceptive services, STI services, prenatal care, adoption, medical care for a minor's child. They do NOT need parental consent for abortion services.

As of November 2012, NY State does not have any of the major types of abortion restrictions (waiting periods, mandated parental involvement or limitations on publicly funded abortions).
