HB 3203 amends Oklahoma's assault and battery laws to specifically address medical treatment without consent. It defines "aggravated assault and battery" in Section 646 when medical professionals administer treatment causing injury or distress without informed consent, fail to explain risks, or ignore a patient's refusal. Violating these medical consent provisions becomes a Class B5 felony under Section 647, carrying up to four years in prison or a $5,000 fine - stricter than standard aggravated assault penalties. The bill directly affects healthcare providers performing treatments and patients who experience unauthorized medical interventions. It clarifies "informed consent" as a process requiring clear information about treatment risks and benefits.
