Bill Summary

This bill permits a physician to perform breast surgery on a minor in certain instances if the procedure is at the election of the minor in consultation with her primary care physician.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing law to allow physicians to perform breast reduction surgery on minors under specific circumstances, in addition to already permitted procedures for correcting gynecomastia (enlarged breast tissue in males), symptomatic macromastia (abnormally large breasts), and congenital deformities. The new provision permits such surgery if it is the minor's choice, made in consultation with their primary care physician, and the primary reason for the surgery is to alleviate issues like musculoskeletal pain, postural changes, or physical discomfort that limits exercise and activity.
