[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've posted on other posts but I've seen this info given out incorrectly again. Having POA does not mean you automatically get into about your kid. ONLY if your kid is unable to make their own decisions and the POA gets activated do you get info without your kids permission. If your kid breaks his arm and you call the hospital for info, he can say "please don't tell my parents anything" and they have to follow that. Throwing around that you are his proxy means nothing if he's alert and oriented and doesn't want you to get into. Now, he can fill out a form at the college so you have access to his info there but again, he can at any point say "I don't want my parents to know about this'. It just seems like a common misconception that an inactivate POA is able to get the same info as an activated one. [/quote] A POA is not the same thing as a HIPAA waiver. You need both. [/quote]
