HB 1182 South Dakota House · 2026 Regular Session

establish a data collection system pertaining to assisted reproductive technology and to provide a penalty therefor.

HB 1182 requires South Dakota's Department of Health to create a public data collection system tracking assisted reproductive technology (ART) procedures. It mandates fertility clinics and ART providers to report annual data on embryo creation, implantation, disposition methods (like freezing, donation, or disposal), embryo transfers out of state, and pregnancy/live birth outcomes. The collected data must be compiled and published online by July 1 each year. This bill directly affects ART providers in South Dakota and aims to provide transparency on ART practices without changing existing medical procedures.
