Bill overview
This bill restricts when health professionals and students can perform invasive bodily examinations on anesthetized or unconscious patients in Michigan. It requires written, informed consent from the patient or their authorized representative unless an emergency situation exists. The bill also ensures that patients have the option to specify whether a student can participate in these examinations during the consent process. This legislation is contingent on the passage of Senate Bill 476.
