NEVADA STATUTES AND CODES

126.061 - Artificial insemination.

126.061  Artificial insemination.

      1.  If, under the supervision of a licensed physician and with the consent of her husband, a wife is inseminated artificially with semen donated by a man not her husband, the husband is treated in law as if the husband were the natural father of a child thereby conceived. The husband’s consent must be in writing and signed by the husband and his wife. The physician shall certify their signatures and the date of the insemination, and file the husband’s consent with the Health Division of the Department of Health and Human Services, where, except as otherwise provided in NRS 239.0115, it must be kept confidential and in a sealed file. The physician’s failure to do so does not affect the father and child relationship. All papers and records pertaining to the insemination, whether part of the permanent record of a court or of a file held by the supervising physician or elsewhere, are subject to inspection only upon an order of the court for good cause shown.

      2.  The donor of semen provided to a licensed physician for use in artificial insemination of a married woman other than the donor’s wife is treated in law as if the donor were not the natural father of a child thereby conceived.
