This bill proposes the creation of a new section in chapter 32-12.1 of the North Dakota Century Code that addresses the medical liability of government entities. It defines "medical product" as any product used for diagnosing or managing diseases, including medical devices, drugs, or biologics.
The bill stipulates that no state agency, political subdivision, or other government entity may require individuals to take, receive, or disclose information regarding their use of a medical product unless the manufacturer of that product is held liable for any resulting death or serious injury. This provision aims to protect individuals from being compelled to disclose sensitive medical information without the assurance of accountability from manufacturers.
