In general, parents do have access to their minor children’s health records. There are three circumstances where parents do not have access:

• when the minor is the one who consents to care and the consent of the parent is not required under law
• if the minor obtains care at the guidance of a court or person appointed by court
• when a parent agrees that the minor and healthcare provider have a confidential relationship

However, access to parents may be permitted in these circumstances if permitted by state or other applicable laws.
