A push by abortion opponents to ensure that Kansas doesn’t have even indirect involvement in terminating pregnancies has legislators focusing on the state medical school.
The University of Kansas Medical Center would be affected by two separate but similar measures.
One is a provision in a proposed state budget facing a final House vote Monday. Another is a bill endorsed by a House committee aimed at making sure the state doesn’t subsidize abortions indirectly through tax credits or deductions.
Both measures say no health care services provided by a state agency or state employees while on the job could include abortion, except to save a woman’s life. Doctors in training at the Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan., are considered state employees.

As originally proposed, House Bill 2598 would have prevented medical residents who are being trained as obstetrics-gynecologists from training for abortion-related procedures. That would have jeopardized accreditation of the OB-GYN program, which will be reviewed this fall, KU said. Kansans for Life, however, said that KU was wrong.
