The Complex Rules of Medical Privacy Rights of Minors

 
The concept of privacy and confidentiality in the medical profession is as almost as old as medical practices themselves. Many of the standards of ethics and morals among healthcare professionals are passed down to us from Hippocrates; the Ancient Greek physician whose ‘Hippocratic Oath’ remains a key text for anyone working in healthcare the modern United States.

However, just because a set of rules and codes is ancient – and is considered fundamental to the community it binds – does not mean that it is necessarily straightforward. Nearly two and half millennia have passed since the Hippocratic Oath was authored, so it is natural that amendments and alterations have been made over the years to bring it into line with contemporary thought and best practices. This is particularly true in relation to the rights of the minor.

Minors’ rights – and their relationship to the rights of a parent or guardian – represent a thorny and difficult issue for the modern medical professional.
