How will this legislation help adult adoptees obtain their medical histories?
Under the sealed records laws, medical information available to adopted persons is as old as they are because the information was taken before they were born. Birth parents who file a nondisclosure and/or contact preference form will be asked to complete a family history form, which will include updated medical information. When an adult adoptee requests a copy of his original birth certificate, the family history information provided by the birth parent will be sent to the adoptee with the birth certificate.
