South Dakota would create a new crime of fraudulent assisted reproduction, making it a Class 5 felony for a licensed health care provider to use donated reproductive material or their own reproductive material in fertility procedures without the patient's written consent. The law also removes the normal time limit for prosecuting this crime, allowing charges to be filed at any time after the violation is discovered and reported to authorities.
