Consent needed for intimate exams under anesthesia or while unconscious

The law defines an intimate exam as a manual breast exam or an internal pelvic, prostate, or rectal exam. It does not include a visual exam. A licensed provider cannot perform an intimate exam on an anesthetized or unconscious patient in a health care facility without the patient’s prior written consent. Exceptions apply if an authorized decision-maker gives written consent, in an emergency for diagnosis or treatment, or if a court orders it to collect evidence. If an exam happens under an exception, the patient must get written notice before discharge. Providers who violate these rules face discipline under the Uniform Credentialing Act.
