1. Parent's insurance can be used, but they may find out the origin for the visit because of billing.
2. Parental rights may be deferred because of select issues.
3. The Mature Minor Doctrine allows a health-care provider to provide select care without the knowledge or consent of parents if the child demonstrates he/she meets the requirements of informed consent and the request is validated from the perspective of the provider. There may be other practical impediments nevertheless.
4. One answer is correct.
