Generally, no. The parent with sole legal custody has the legal right and authority to make health and medical decisions that affect the child. You should review your divorce decree and custody order to check whether you have joint legal custody. If you have a question or an issue regarding your child's health then you should consult with an attorney.

∙ 11y agoOn a personal level the non-custodial parent should notify the other parent if there is an emergency. However, if the child is with the non-custodial parent and needs attention, then it is right to take them for treatment. The essential thing is to care for the child and not exert control over every situation. As a custodial parent/guardian, you could set up arrangements in advance and let the other parent know which hospital/Dr to use and have your contact number on record.
United States
The non-custodial parent does not have the legal authority to have the child treated at a hospital unless it is an emergency and the custodial parent is notified immediately.
