SF 3215 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

End of Life Option Act establishment provision

This bill establishes a legal process for terminally ill Minnesota adults with a six-month prognosis to request medication for medical aid in dying. It requires two medical evaluations (by an attending provider and a consulting provider), a mental health assessment by a licensed professional to confirm decision-making capacity, and mandates that the medication be self-administered. The law applies to qualified individuals meeting specific medical criteria, with providers following standard medical practices while offering this option. It includes criminal penalties for violations and requires data reporting to the state.
