Call Reveals Medicaid Paying to Abort 30-Week Down Syndrome Baby

Operation Rescue has released this video containing excerpts from an undercover call to a late-term abortion clinic that assured the caller that Medicaid would pay the total costs of an abortion at 30 weeks gestation on a pre-born baby diagnosed with Down Syndrome.
Estimated cost of this abortion was between $10,000 and $16,000.

The call was placed on October 12, 2011, to Southwestern Women's Options, a late-term abortion clinic in Albuquerque, New Mexico, that made headlines when a similar undercover call revealed that late-term abortions are being done at tax-payer expense on healthy women with healthy pregnancies.

Southwestern Women's Options also recently attracted attention for the excessive number of abortion complications that required emergency hospitalization.  Operation Rescue published the 911 calls showing women suffering from various life-threatening abortion-related injuries and complications.  The clinic's abortionists are currently under investigation by the New Mexico Medical Board based on complaints filed by Operation Rescue and Project Defending Life.
