Missouri HB1895 modifies assisted reproduction laws to clarify parental rights and responsibilities.
Missouri HB1895 amends the uniform parentage act to clarify the legal status of donors and intended parents in assisted reproduction. The bill specifies that a donor is not considered a parent if there is a written agreement to the contrary prior to conception. It also establishes that an intended parent who consents in writing is treated as the natural parent if the child is conceived using donated semen or ova. The consent must be signed by the donor and the person conceiving the child.
