parental rights; medical records

HB 2057 expands parents' access to their minor child's medical records by requiring health care providers to give parents equivalent access to electronic portals and platforms. It guarantees parents the right to make health care decisions for their children and mandates notification if a crime against the child is suspected (unless it would impede an investigation). The bill directly affects parents of minors and health care entities in Arizona, ensuring parents can access medical records for services not requiring parental consent. It does not override existing laws requiring parental consent for specific medical treatments.
