A new Pennsylvania bill signed by Governor Josh Shapiro last week will require consent before performing a medical exam.
Act 31 requires medical facilities in Pennsylvania to obtain consent before perform pelvic, prostate, or rectal exams on anesthetized patients.
The now law was sponsored by Representatives Liz Fiedler (D-Philadelphia) and Liz Hanbidge (D-Montgomery).
The bill will take effect in 60 days.
