Bill > HB1784

This bill amends Pennsylvania's Consolidated Statutes to provide protection for records related to reproductive health services. It prohibits covered entities, such as healthcare providers, from disclosing certain communications and information about a patient's reproductive health care services without the patient's explicit written consent, with some exceptions. The bill also outlines the duties of covered entities to inform patients of their right to withhold consent, and clarifies that the law does not impede the lawful sharing of medical records or supersede existing state laws governing the disclosure of confidential communications.
