What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill requires a physician or other health care provider who is authorized to administer a vaccination to administer a medically appropriate vaccine to a minor who is 16 years of age or older and who requests to be vaccinated, regardless of whether a parent or guardian consents to the vaccination of the minor. If a parent or guardian refuses to provide consent to the vaccination, the physician or other health care provider must obtain the minor’s consent before billing a third party for the services. If the minor does not consent to billing a third party, the minor is responsible for paying for the services, which the Department of Health Services must bill to the minor based upon the minor’s ability to pay.
