The bill seeks to enhance the protection of assisted reproduction care in Ohio by introducing new definitions and establishing the concept of "assisted reproduction care," which includes various medical and supportive services. It provides legal protections for healthcare providers, facilities, and individuals involved in assisted reproduction, shielding them from civil liability, criminal prosecution, or professional disciplinary action under specific conditions. Additionally, the bill emphasizes the importance of privacy and informed consent, requiring regulated entities to obtain express consent before handling personal assisted reproduction or donor information and to provide individuals with access to their information and the ability to request its deletion.

Furthermore, the bill mandates that regulated entities publish a clear privacy policy on their websites detailing their practices regarding the collection, retention, use, and disclosure of personal information. It establishes legal recourse for individuals who allege violations of these regulations, allowing them to pursue civil actions for damages, including punitive damages and attorney's fees, while prohibiting pre-dispute arbitration agreements. The bill also clarifies that no human reproductive material outside of a human uterus shall be considered a person and requires informed consent from patients prior to receiving assisted reproduction health care.
