Can my little sis use her health insurance for birth control w/o parental knowledge?

My little sis wants to be on birth control. And I think its smart, she just turned 17, and has horrible irrgular periods. Mom flipped out when she asked her if she could go on it to regulate her periods. Its a few months later now, and she came to me for help. She has Blue Cross Blue Shield Child Health Plan, so doctor visits are only a 5 dollar co-pay and medicine (including BC is only a dollar per bottle.) I know that she is old enough to get it w/o her parents knowledge at any health clinic or what not. But can she go to her regular doc and get it. She has an appointment this afternoon that I'm taking her to, but when she gets the prescription filled will it show up on the insurance statement as birth control or will it just show as just a medication filling

oh yeah it will show up. first of all shame on your mother. she needs to let your sister make that decision now for her self . come on the girl is 17. look to keep it on the down load take her to the health unit and get it all for free. that is what they are there for. and just say she just moved in with you. it won't hurt to tell a little fib. other than that i would tell your mother that you are going to take your sister with or without her and you are going to use the insurance. i went to the health unit since my parents were very religious and i had no support from them. i had bad menstrual cycles and the pill helped eliminate the pain and torture i had to go through for 5 years till i was 17. it is a touchy subject when parents look as the pills as a way for the girls to go have sex. i was getting it my cycle not to go out and have sex. so i wish you two the best. don't go today re-schedule the appointment and try today to convince mom and if it fails then you can go the other route. pills are 30-45 dollars a pack. the health unit is there to help.
