AN ACT relating to blood donation.

Summary

The bill gives individuals the right to request blood from a chosen donor for their transfusion and bars blood banks, hospitals and other health providers from denying or making it harder to obtain those donations. It also limits fees for directed or autologous donations, requires clear disclosure of policies, and shields physicians who arrange such donations from disciplinary action. Violations can trigger civil lawsuits and state fines up to $250,000.
