195 is the number of abortions performed for people traveling from out of state since July. 8,500 is the projection of abortion related visits in 2023 based on them having 4,300 actual abortion related visits since July. Abortion related visits counts things like virtual health visits where a patient receives abortion counseling from a Pennsylvania doctor because the doctors in their states legally are not allowed to give them any counseling/recommendations whatsoever.

Of course the number of abortion procedures performed on out of state patients is much lower, which is also compounded by the fact that even though Pennsylvania has better abortion access than a lot of its neighboring states to the west and south, PA still has draconian abortion laws like the doctor being required to read you some long winded bullshit from the state that discourages you having an abortion, and a required 24 hour waiting period between the visit and the procedure (a lot of people can’t afford to take the time off). States to the east of us don’t have these restrictions so a lot of people who have the means to travel are able to go the extra mile to avoid all that.
