HB 2884 requires health professionals to share a minor’s health information with parents or legal guardians and removes minors’ ability to block this disclosure. It mandates parental presence during health consultations for minors under 18 (except in abuse cases) and amends physician-patient privilege laws to state minors cannot refuse to share confidential health information with parents. The bill authorizes the Attorney General to enforce these provisions through lawsuits and grants remedies like damages and attorney fees for violations. It directly affects minors under 18, parents/guardians, and healthcare providers in Oklahoma.
