The government is taking control of your children. Plan accordingly.
My immediate thought. Parent should refuse to pay any charges levied for treatments not approved. Then shout it to the high hills. Name and shame.
This is happening in Wyoming of all states? Wow. Just wow.
I believe this is a result of federal regulations not state law.
Who pays for those “treatments?” The parent. So the parent has the right to know, and to make executive decisions on behalf of the child.
One more step on the path to government taking total control of kids.
“We can limit access to records of treatment that may not be provided without the minor’s consent.”
Will this be the next term thrown around for discussion? -— “a minor’s right to consent for medical procedures, etc.”
Any other framing of the issue is dishonest.
I’d be standing on some MF’s desk and have their attention in a US Marine Officer’s Minute!
Banner Health should be losing lots of policies.
America is finished.
When the bill comes don’t pay it. Give it to the kid. Pull the kid from coverage.
The UNLV guidance counselling office started my 13/14 year old daughters session before I got to the office to meet her there. They didn’t want to let me in and threatened to call the police. I told them to please do because they had kidnapped my child and I’d be happy to file a report. I reiterated that a few times and surprise! They let me in the counseling session. Don’t let your children be taken hostage, or their records.
Then they can pay the medical bills until the child is 18...
Drop the little pervert off at the county social services. Surrender them for adoption.
The parents need to wake up, I warned my doctor many years ago that if he ever treated my MINOR daughter for ANY REASON without me being notified and approving it, I would hunt him down like the dog he is and kill him. We NEVER had any problems, and he is still my doctor, I know where he lives and he knows it.
