It is interesting that Georgia requires a report on any fetal death. In contrast, Arizona the law requires it only "after the fetal death for each fetal death occurring in this state after a gestational period of twenty completed weeks or if the product of human conception weighs more than three hundred fifty grams."
Presumably, in Georgia a pregnant woman's ob-gyn just submits a report as a matter of routine if she miscarries.
