In this episode, we sat down with Cindy Adam, Co-Founder & CEO of Choix and a nurse practitioner. Choix is a telehealth clinic offering abortion care and sexual and reproductive health care to patients in their homes. Choix recently raised $1M in seed funding in a round led by Elevate Capital.

We discussed:

The recent history of abortion care in the U.S. and the legal implications of the Dobbs v. Jackson decision eliminating the federal constitutional right to abortion.
The clinical background of medicated abortion care and how permanent FDA authorization for providers to mail mifepristone, the pill used in medicated abortions, enabled abortion care to be practiced through telehealth.
The importance of the November midterms and potential regulatory shifts after voters express their views on abortion at the polls.
