Washington State's general age of majority for health care, meaning you can get healthcare services in Washington without an authorized adult's permission, is 18. You can read the state law about this at RCW 26.28.010.
Parents may consent for minors. "Authorized adults" also include:
- Adult with court permission to make health care decisions for you (legal guardian or custodian, out-of-home placement order)
- Adult with parent's written permission to make health care decisions for you
- Adult relative who has signed a declaration that they are responsible for your health care
- In some circumstances, a school nurse, school counselor, or school homeless student liaison. You can read the state law about this at RCW 7.70.065.
If you are under age 18, you can get healthcare services without an authorized adult’s consent if you are married to an adult (RCW 26.28.020), or have legally emancipated from your parents (RCW 13.64), or have been determined by a health care provider to be a mature minor, or in some situations if you are homeless.
