The formal disciplinary hearing for abortionist Ann Kristin Neuhaus has been delayed for the third time by the Kansas State Board of Healing Arts. Neuhaus is a former associate of George Tiller and provided the second physician referral for all of his late-term abortions for several years. Patients involved in the complaint range in age from 10-18 years old with gestational ages between 25 and 29 weeks. All eleven patients were referred to Tiller for post-viability abortions based on mental health concerns between July and November, 2003. In the current petition, based on a complaint filed by Operation Rescue, Neuhaus is accused of the following in each of the eleven counts against her:
• Failure to perform adequate patient interview
• Failure to obtain adequate patient history
• Failure to adequately evaluate the “behavioral or functional impact” of the patient’s condition and symptoms
• Failure to meet the standard of care to the degree of constituting ordinary negligence
• Failure to keep adequate medical records
