Out-of-state patients seeking abortions in Washington rose 36% over the last year.
, out-of-state abortions in Washington rose 36% year-over-year for the period between January and May 2023. That number was even higher for abortion patients from neighboring Idaho at 56%.
Clinics in Central and Eastern Washington have taken on much of that increase. Between January and May of 2022, Planned Parenthood’s Sunnyside clinic took in just one abortion patient. Over that same period in 2023, they took in 23. It was a similar story in Pasco, jumping from 4 patients over those months in 2022 to 34 this year.Anecdotally, one Washington doctor reported seeing abortion patients from seven separate states in a single day.
At UW Medicine, doctors reported “a tenfold increase in the number of people requesting sterilization procedures,” Cantwell’s office said, as well as an uptick in patients looking to have contraceptive measures like IUDs removed and replaced.
