No positive test result shall be revealed to the person upon whom the test was performed without providing or referring that person for individual counseling about:

A. the meaning of the test results;

B. the possible need for additional testing;

C. the availability of appropriate health care services, including mental health care, social and support services; and

D. the benefits of locating and counseling any individual by whom the infected person may have been exposed to the human immunodeficiency virus and any individual whom the infected person may have exposed to the human immunodeficiency virus.

History: Laws 1989, ch. 227, § 4; 2013, ch. 72, § 1.

The 2013 amendment, effective March 29, 2013, eliminated the requirement that a person upon whom a positive immunodeficiency virus test has been performed be provided or referred to counseling; and after "performed without", deleted "the person performing the test or the health facility at which the test was performed".
