POWERS OF ATTORNEY

POWERS OF ATTORNEY

Imagine for a moment you are seriously ill and in a coma. There are health care decisions that must be made but you cannot make them. What do you think would happen then?The answer to that question is: It depends. It depends whether or not you have a durable medical power of attorney in place.

If you do not have ... a durable power of attorney for health care decisions, in all likelihood your family members will be scrambling, perhaps even going to court, to get the legal right to make those decisions. All the while they are waiting, the medical bills are piling up and you are not able to receive that next level of care that depends upon a decision.

 

But if you do have ... a durable power of attorney for health care decisions, the person to whom you've given this power, a person whom you trust, will be able to make those decisions as quickly as possible, saving time, money and perhaps even your life.

DO YOU HAVE YOUR POWERS OF ATTORNEY IN PLACE?

Some of the most important of your estate planning documents are those that give power of attorney over your health and finances should you become incapacitated. They are:


Durable power of attorney for health care decisions: Also called a "medical power of attorney," this document allows someone you have designated to make medical decisions should you become incapacitated.


Durable general power of attorney: In this document, you have designated someone to manage your financial affairs should you become incapacitated.
