Prohibits reporting medical information of children without consent of parent or legal guardian.

This bill requires health care providers in New Jersey to obtain written parental or guardian consent before sharing a child's medical information with state agencies like the Department of Health. It directly affects hospitals, clinics, doctors, and health professionals who currently report data on newborn hearing screenings, lead tests, autism diagnoses, cardiac events, and immunizations. Key provisions amend existing laws to add consent requirements for these reporting systems, while allowing exceptions for suspected child abuse. The bill ensures parents must explicitly agree to share their child's health data, with clear procedures for providers to explain this requirement.
