This right of access and disclosure does not waive any evidentiary privilege.  (e) A mental health care decision made by an agent for a principal shall be effective without judicial approval.  (f) An agent is not, solely as a result of acting in that capacity, personally liable for the cost of treatment provided to the principal.
