North Dakota Century Code Title 14. Domestic Relations and Persons § 14-10-17.1. Minor's emergency care

1. A minor may contract for and receive emergency examination, care, or treatment in a life-threatening situation without the consent of the minor's parent or guardian. If a minor has an emergency medical condition or the potential for an emergency medical condition, consent to emergency examination, care, or treatment of the minor is implied if reasonable steps to contact the minor's parent or guardian are unsuccessful. This subsection does not authorize a minor to withhold consent to emergency examination, care, or treatment.

2. A physician or other health care provider may provide emergency medical care or forensic services to a minor who is a victim of sexual assault without the consent of the minor's parent or guardian. Reasonable steps must be made to notify the minor's parent or guardian of the care provided.
