Sommario/riassunto

Israel has maintained a pro-natalist policy with regard to reproductive care. The State provides health care along the continuum from family planning services through childbirth. Much of reproductive care is funded by the government and through Health Funds. This report analyzes various factors that have impacted Israel's approach to reproductive care and discusses the governing law as well as the types and amounts of government funding that are allocated for reproductive care.
