A mother in Oregon is told she can no longer have access to her child patient portal
“I just got done taking my son to the doctor and they tried telling me at the front desk that I don't have access to his patient portal anymore because he just turned 13. Are you kidding me? He is under the age of 18. He is my child. I should have access to what his medical stuff is. That is insane to me”
This is real and because Democrats are trying to twine away parents rights from their own kids
Here’s what happens at age 13 in Oregon
Oregon Minor Consent Laws kick in, minors gain rights to confidential care in certain areas without parental knowledge or consent
- Age 14+: Can consent to outpatient mental health, drug and alcohol treatment
- Age 15+: Can consent to general medical, hospital, dental and surgical care
- Any age: Full confidentiality for reproductive health birth control, STI, HIV testing and treatment
Systems like MyChart and Epic often default to restricting or segmenting parental (“proxy”) access starting at age 13
Who needs enemies when you have Democrats. They are literally restricting you from knowing what your own kid is doing medically
