At times, your clinician may seek supervision or consultation with other Mora Medical or non-Mora Medical clinicians regardingyour treatment, to enhance the services being provided to you given the multiple perspectives, experiences, and treatmentphilosophies. All team members are ethically and legally bound to maintain your privacy and confidentiality in this scenario andnone of your personal information will be shared or disclosed with any other individual without your consent. Exceptions toconfidentiality do exist in certain situations, such as: threat of serious harm to self or others; reasonable suspicion of abuse orneglect of a child, or abuse, neglect, or exploitation of an incapacitated or dependent adult; court order and/or subpoena;permission from the client or guardian (i.e. voluntary release signed by the client or guardian); during supervisory consultations;diagnosis and dates of service shared with an insurance company to collect payments; information released as outlined MoraMedical’s Notice of Privacy Practices and Privacy Policy; and as otherwise required by law.

TREATMENT AND CONFIDENTIALITY OF MINORS.

In accordance with state laws, consent for treatment of a minor can only be authorized by a current legal guardian for the minor. Ifthe parents of a minor are separated, treatment is provided to the minor only with the written consent of both parents. If the parentsof the minor are divorced, consent for treatment of the minor may be given by the parent authorized to make medical decisions forthe minor. If a court of law has ordered that medical decisions for the minor are to be made jointly by the minor’s parents, thenconsent of both parents is required for treatment of the minor. In the case of minors, as defined by state law, parents may requestinformation about their child’s diagnosis or treatment. While release of this information will be provided, it is best that the processbe a collaborative one involving the minor, parent, and clinician in order to maintain the rapport established between the minorand clinician since rapport is vital to treatment success. Therefore, unless there is a safety concern, the minor would be consultedabout the disclosure and encouraged to share the information with the parent first in order to establish better communicationswithin the family structure.
