HEALTH: Requests certain entities to evaluate the use of certain terms related to miscarriage

This Louisiana House resolution asks various medical and coding organizations to review and update terms used to describe miscarriage and pregnancy loss. The bill specifically urges groups like the World Health Organization and the American Medical Association to replace older phrases such as "spontaneous abortion" with language that is more compassionate and less likely to cause confusion or emotional distress. By recommending terms like "early pregnancy loss" or "miscarriage," the resolution aims to ensure that clinical records and billing documents reflect patient preferences while maintaining medical accuracy. This request is based on findings that current terminology can stigmatize women and negatively impact their mental health during a traumatic time.
