Recent rapid expansion of telemedicine services has included delivery of those services to adolescents and young adults.

Special attention to minor consent laws which vary by state and country should help inform the health system and practice decisions for patient portal access, delivery of confidential care, and care for which the consent of a guardian or parent is required.
