Article Title
Abstract
The article discusses the legal implications of conscience in obstetricians and healthcare providers. It provides background on controversies related to abortion and conscience in obstetricians. It explains why a decertification by the American Board of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ABOG) based on noncompliance with the College in Ethics Opinion No. 385 could constitute a regulatory taking. It analyzes whether or not ABOG satisfies the state action doctrine's public function rules.
