Emergency Contraception
EMERGENCY CONTRACEPTION (EC) FOR SEXUAL-ASSAULT SURVIVORS
Wisconsin law ensures that sexual-assault survivors receive access to emergency contraception (EC) in hospital emergency rooms. As part of the minimum standards for the examination and treatment of a sexual-assault survivor, hospitals must provide a woman with medically and factually accurate written and oral information about EC, offer her EC, and provide EC upon request.
Wis. Stat. Ann. §§ 50.375, 50.377 (Enacted 2008).
