Minors Health Protection Act.

SB 759, the Minors Health Protection Act, amends North Carolina law to clarify when minors can consent to specific medical services without parental involvement and when parents can access their minor child's medical records. It allows minors to consent to treatment for venereal diseases, pregnancy, substance abuse, and emotional issues (Section 2(a)), but requires written parental consent for emergency-use vaccines not yet fully FDA-approved (Section 2(a1)). Parents generally have access to all medical records, except for records related to abuse investigations, court orders, or if the parent is under criminal investigation (Section 3(b)). The law takes effect October 1, 2025.
