Minnesota<br />

Minors – Permitted Treatments<br />

In Minnesota, a minor may provide <strong>consent</strong> for the following Target Clinic services: pregnancy<br />

testing and Hepatitis B vaccinations.<br />

Emancipated Minors<br />

In Minnesota, an emancipated minor is someone under the age of 18 who is married, is a parent,<br />

is in the armed forces, or lives apart from the minor’s parents and manages his/her own financial<br />

affairs. An emancipated minor may provide <strong>consent</strong> for any medical treatment or other health<br />

services. An emancipated minor may also provide <strong>consent</strong> for treatment for his/her child.<br />

Adults other than parents or guardians<br />

An adult may provide <strong>consent</strong> for a minor’s medical treatment only if a parent or guardian has<br />

delegated authority to that individual through a written document. If a Guest provides you with<br />

document authorizing treatment for a minor child, scan a copy into the patient’s eCW record.<br />
