HB 2884 would require healthcare providers to allow parents or legal guardians to be present during medical consultations for minors under 18 and to share the minor's health records with them, except in cases involving suspected parental abuse. It specifically removes a minor's right to withhold health information from parents, overriding existing doctor-patient privilege protections for minors. The bill also authorizes the Oklahoma Attorney General to enforce these provisions by filing lawsuits for violations, including seeking damages and attorney fees, while waiving immunity for such cases. This legislation directly affects parents of minors under 18, healthcare providers, and mental health professionals who interact with minor patients.
