Generally, the person who has legal custody or legal guardianship of the child has right to the child's medical records. A parent who does not have legal custody is not entitled to the child's medical records. Generally, they would need a court order to obtain them.

Can a stepmother married to the father who has joint custody access child's health records?
Only with permission of both parents. Your marriage to the father with joint custody does not automatically confer parental rights including access to medical records without written permission from both parents in cases of joint custody and may not even apply if the father had full legal and physical custody. This is federal law (HIPAA). If you were to legally adopt the child, those rights were be conferred by virtue of the adoption.

Yes, of course. The custodial parent is entitled to anyrecord concerning the child. Many non-custodial parents provide insurance coverage.

What is the full meaning of child placement when the father has it and the biological parents have shared custody?
This is not legal advice. For legal advice relevant to your particular situation please consult a qualified local attorney. Custody and Placement are two different things entirely. Simply put, placement merely refers to the place where the child resides. Custody is the legal right and obligation to the oversight of the child. Joint custody means that both parents have rights to the child (access to medical records, etc.)

Who has custody rights in Nebraska if the parents are not married?
Generally, if the parents are unmarried the mother has sole custody and control until the father can establish his paternity. Remember, a child's mother can always be identified by medical records. Since the father didn't give birth and he was not legally married at the time of the birth he can establish his paternity through a DNA test. A paternity test can be arranged through the court. Once paternity is established in court, the father can request visitations or custody through the court. If the mother retains physical custody she can request that the court issue a child support order. If the father gets physical custody he can request a child support order.

Do doctors have to release medical information to the parents even if they are a minor?
Most doctors are actually adults. You must be thinking of that TV show.A more detailed answer would be: If the patient is a minor, the patient's parents or guardians would sign the Authorization of the Release of Medical Records form. If the parent or guardian of the minor signed this form, and grant permission to release the medical records, the physician, then, can do so. The parents/guardians have the right to access the minor's medical records, but cannot keep the original record as it belongs to the Maker (in this case, the physician).
