Okla. Stat. tit. 12, § 12-130: Actions brought pursuant to Affordable Access to Health

Care Act.

The venue of civil actions for damages brought pursuant to the

Affordable Access to Health Care Act, Section 1-1708.1A et seq. of

Title 63 of the Oklahoma Statutes, shall be in a county where the

cause of action or any portion thereof arose, or in any county in

which any of the defendants reside, or in the case of a corporation,

in a county in which it is situated, or has its principal office or

place of business, or in any county where a codefendant of such

corporation may be sued. Upon a finding of lack of venue, the court

shall transfer or dismiss the action; provided, however, that if the

court finds lack of venue and that a dismissal would operate as a

dismissal with prejudice, the court shall transfer the action.
