This bill establishes new legal protections for medical practitioners, health care institutions, and health care payors in Oklahoma, particularly concerning their rights to refuse participation in health care services that conflict with their conscience. It defines key terms such as "conscience," "discrimination," "health care institution," and "health care payor," and prohibits discrimination against these entities for exercising their rights of conscience. The bill also provides immunity from civil actions for health care institutions and payors that refuse to participate in services that violate their conscience, with specific exceptions for emergency medical treatment and state-owned entities.

Additionally, the bill outlines the rights of medical practitioners to abstain from participating in health care services that conflict with their ethical or religious beliefs without facing repercussions such as loss of privileges or disciplinary actions. It mandates that professional licensing boards cannot sanction practitioners for protected speech unless it can be proven to have caused physical harm. The legislation also includes provisions for whistleblower protections, remedies for unlawful interference, and the requirement for the Insurance Commissioner to create rules for implementation. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
