How Do I Revoke Mama Bear Legal Documentation?

Location: Maryland ; Location: North Carolina.

Hi all. I come from Maryland and go to school in North Carolina. When I turned 18, I was basically told I couldn’t go to school unless I signed the Mama Bear documents. I know there are a few of them. I’m not sure what I have signed since my parents did not let me read the documents, which I know was a red flag, but they would not let me read it on my own time or have a lawyer explain the information to me.

I know one of them is HIPAA related since somehow my Dad finds out about what happens at every doctors visit even though I signed a different document saying I didn’t want this to happen, that was signed before the Mama Bear documentation. So I assume the Mama Bear document overrides that.

I called up to Mama Bears support line to try and get a copy of the documentation and they said they don’t keep it and it’s only a physical copy which I know is false since I know my mom has a digital copy. I asked what about their app, to which the customer support lady said she didn’t know. I don’t have an account with Mama Bear.

I’m 21 now and about to graduate, I was wondering how I would revoke this the second I walk across the stage as I want to start having complete privacy over medical issues. I’m just stuck on what to do since it doesn’t seem like I can receive a copy. I know a course of action would to just be to ask my mom for the copy but I fear that would start an argument. Additionally, for how long does the documentation last? Is this something that I would need to get a lawyer for? Thank you in advance. I know some similar posts have been showing up so I’m sorry if it is repetitive.
