SB 1941, or the “Reproductive Empowerment and Support Through Optimal Restoration (RESTORE) Act” tasks the Oklahoma State Department of Health (OSDH) with collecting statewide data and publishing recurring reports on the standard of care for women with infertility diagnoses, with an emphasis on information related to restorative reproductive medicine.
It also requires Title X-funded clinics to add fertility-awareness body-literacy education to their services and prohibits state/local funders from penalizing providers for refusing to participate in assisted reproductive technology based on religious or moral convictions.
Finally, it orders curriculum updates, training, research, and medical coding/reimbursement changes around reproductive health conditions and treatments.
