There's more to come with this case, and several other legal challenges to telemedicine abortion are underway.
Selena Simmons-Duffin, NPR News, Washington.
Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade nearly four years ago, telemedicine abortion has grown and grown, and it now accounts for a quarter of all abortions in the country.
Some of those abortions are happening in states with bans, but residents of states where abortion is legal are also making use of the flexibility of telemedicine to access abortion.
I've talked to people who live in remote parts of California, in Georgia, in Louisiana, who all use telemedicine abortion and were grateful they had that option.
How many schools have we bombed?
So how do you explain the publicly available information that 22 schools have been hit and multiple hospitals?
The case comes from the state of Louisiana.
It argued that the Food and Drug Administration allowing telemedicine access to Mifepristone undermines its abortion ban.
Earlier this month, a panel of federal appeals court judges agreed with the state and ended telemedicine access.
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito paused that decision for one week and has now extended that pause for three more days.
That means patients can continue to receive mifepristone by mail at least until Thursday, at which point the Supreme Court is likely to make a longer-term decision.
Telemedicine now accounts for one-quarter of all abortions nationally.

The poll is from KFF, a nonpartisan health research organization.
Voters who support the Make America Healthy Again or MAHA movement were asked to rank their top priorities from a list.
Lowering the cost of health care was by far the most popular choice across the political spectrum.
Four in 10 Maha voters ranked cost issues first, compared to fewer than one in 10 who chose limiting corporate influence on food policy, for example.
When it comes to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., only one in three Maha voters strongly approved of his job performance, even though Maha is Kennedy's signature effort.
The survey was conducted in mid-April and included 1,300 people.
