Women to get phone abortion access
AAP
Australian women could get access to medical abortions over the phone without having to visit a doctor or clinic.
The Tabbot Foundation has been launched to provide Australia-wide telephone assessment for home abortions, using the abortion drug mifepristone or RU486.
"Home-based medical abortion improves the acceptability of medical abortion by allowing for greater privacy than in-clinic abortion and giving women greater control over the timing of the abortion," the foundation's website says.
