HB 1554 Arkansas House · 2025 Regular Session

TO CREATE THE ASSISTED REPRODUCTIVE TECHNOLOGY REPORTING ACT.

HB 1554, titled "The Assisted Reproductive Technology Reporting Act," would have required fertility clinics to submit anonymized statistical data on assisted reproductive technology procedures to the state health department. The bill specifically directed that reports include only aggregated, non-identifiable statistics - such as procedure types and outcomes - without any personally identifiable information about patients or providers. It aimed to create standardized data collection for public health tracking, affecting all clinics performing these procedures within the state. The bill was amended to clarify data privacy requirements and withdrawn by its author in April 2025, with no further legislative action taken.
