Why is confidentiality of adolescent patients often broken down?

Confidentiality of adolescent patients often breaks down because there is no universal policy regarding billing standards to ensure parents/guardians (policyholders) will not view sensitive information in adolescents’ Explanation of Benefits (EOB). It is the position of the Society for Adolescent Health and Medicine (SAHM), the AAP, and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) that policies should be developed to not impede the provision of confidential healthcare to adolescent patients.

Do EHRs keep patient portals confidential?

Most EHRs do not by default integrate tools for keeping elements of the adolescent record and the corresponding patient portal confidential. In many adolescent clinics, providers have taken the time and effort to work with their Health Information Management (HIM) departments to preserve the confidentiality of patients. For example, in many clinics adolescents become the owner of their patient portal at an age designated by the institution and grant proxy access to parents to enable them to review all or a portion of the information contained therein (Figure 2).
