If he uses his insurance card without his parents knowing, which I am sure he could, he runs the risk of his parents getting made and taking him off of their insurance policy.
Are we talking States or NHS insurance, got a bit lost, I did, somewhere?

In States, if still with pediatrics, which some 18year olds are, the doctor can make the referral. If under 18, parents cannot just pull the plug on health insurance, and I get confused about the whole until 26 years thing, is that optional or mandatory? And pulling health insurance isn't so easy, lots of forms, waivers, etc. Then, here's a card, if still in school....how do your parents file the taxes? As you a dependent and they get the credit or do you get the full return on work. .
We do get a coverage authorization through insurance, which I'm looking at mine. Doesn't mean everyone actually reads all their forms...

How to deal with stubbornness? Patiently and carefully.
