ORS 419B.050 Authority of health care provider to disclose information; immunity from liability

Upon notice by a law enforcement agency, the Department of Human Services, a member agency of a county child abuse multidisciplinary team or a member of a county child abuse multidisciplinary team that a child abuse investigation is being conducted under ORS 419B.020, a health care provider must permit the law enforcement agency, the department, the member agency of the county child abuse multidisciplinary team or the member of the county child abuse multidisciplinary team to inspect and copy medical records, including, but not limited to, prenatal and birth records, of the child involved in the investigation without the consent of the child, or the parent or guardian of the child. A health care provider who in good faith disclosed medical records under this section is not civilly or criminally liable for the disclosure.

As used in this section, “health care provider” has the meaning given that term in ORS 192.556.
