OK SB710

Reduces the pregnancy threshold for fetal heartbeat detection requirements from 8 weeks to 6 weeks after fertilization under the Heartbeat Informed Consent Act.

Requires abortion providers to inform pregnant women that an embryonic or fetal heartbeat may be detectable and to offer the option to hear the heartbeat using a Doppler fetal heart rate monitor.

Prohibits physicians from performing an abortion if an embryonic or fetal heartbeat is determined to be audible.

Provides exceptions from violation of heartbeat detection requirements if the provider attempts in good faith to detect the heartbeat, the attempt is unsuccessful, and the provider offers to attempt detection at a subsequent date.

Takes effect November 1, 2017.
