The law requires anyone doing abortions in an abortion clinic to be an OB-GYN with admitting privileges at a local hospital. Such privileges can be difficult to obtain, because hospitals don't give them to out-of-state doctors or because religious-affiliated hospitals might not give them to doctors doing elective abortions
