House Sponsors: ZICKUS. Short description: MINOR-COUNSELING-INFORM PARENT Synopsis of Bill as introduced: Amends the Consent by Minors to Medical Procedures Act. Provides that a person providing counseling to a minor in connection with a sexually transmitted disease or drug or alcohol abuse shall inform the minor's parent or other responsible adult of the minor's condition or treatment unless that action is, in the person's judgment, not in the minor's best interest.
