- Removes the conflict of laws provision from the catch title. (Page 1, line 5)
- Corrects the statutory reference to reference only W.S. 35-6-201 instead of both 35-6-201 and 35-6-202. (Page 1, line 9)
- Deletes the detailed documentation requirements that previously required ultrasound providers to supply specific information about the ultrasound and unborn baby measurements. (Page 3, lines 20 through 23)
- Removes the entire second section creating W.S. 35-6-202, which contained conflict of laws language. (Page 4)
- Renumbers the verification subsection from (e) to (b), reflecting the removal of earlier subsections. (Page 5, line 2)
- Replaces the specific ultrasound requirement with a flexible verification standard allowing gestational age to be determined through means agreed upon by the patient and physician or pharmacist, in accordance with American Medical Association or American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists guidelines. (Page 5, lines 5 through 27)
- Removes the penalty provisions that previously outlined criminal penalties for violations. (Page 5, lines 7 through 22)
