Noted: Earlier this year in Madison, the issue of abortion was thrust into the spotlight when the board for the Madison Surgery Center in February agreed to offer a procedure for second-term abortions. The facility at 1 South Park Street is jointly operated by UW and Meriter hospitals.
UW Health spokesperson Lisa Brunette said the procedures have not started yet and that implementation is moving a measured pace that could take months. Brunette also said the procedure will be offered for women between 19 and 22 weeks of pregnancy.
