     1    Section 1. The public health law is amended by adding  a  new  section

     5  of this article and which offers allopathic or osteopathic medical resi-
     6  dent training in obstetrics, gynecology, internal  medicine  or  women's
     7  health  shall provide training that follows the Accreditation Council on
     8  Graduate Medical  Education  or  the  American  Osteopathic  Association
     9  special   requirements  for  obstetrics-gynecology.  The  program  shall
    10  provide a structured didactic and clinical training  experience  in  all
    11  methods of family planning.  Topics shall include all reversible methods
    12  of  contraception,  including natural methods, as well as sterilization.
    13  The program shall include experience in management of  complications  as

     2  mechanisms which insure that residents in their program who do not  have
     3  a  religious  or  moral  objection  receive  education and experience in
     4  performing abortion at another institution.
     5    3.  Any  hospital which fails to follow the provisions of this section
     6  shall be ineligible for reimbursement under the provisions of this arti-
     7  cle.
