SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Assisted reproductive technology program; disclosure of gamete donors. Provides that a person conceived by assisted reproductive technology as a result of a donation of gametes may, if 18 years of age or older, request access to the records of the donor in the possession of an assisted reproductive technology program in order to acquire identifying information from the donor file, including any medical, psychological or genetic history and the name of the donor. Should the person receive identifying information on the donor, the assisted reproductive technology program shall, as soon as possible, inform the donor that the identifying information has been provided. The Board of Health must promulgate regulations to implement the provisions of the bill, including, but not limited to, the procedures for retaining donor files, requesting access to donor files, and notifying donors when identifying information has been provided.
