Choose an agent and successors to direct burial, cremation or other disposition after your death. Record any special directions and review the agent's acceptance and cost-responsibility provisions in this Texas packet.
Nominate a guardian of your person or estate if a Texas court later needs to appoint one. The packet has distinct signing options; disqualifying someone from serving affects which option you may use.
State your preferences for life-sustaining treatment under the circumstances described in this Texas directive, also called a living will. Discuss the choices with your doctor and share the completed directive with your care team.
Identify the people allowed to receive specified protected health information and the limits and expiration of your permission. This authorization releases information; it does not appoint a financial agent or replace a medical power of attorney.
Appoint an agent and alternates to make health care decisions if you cannot make them yourself. Read the Texas disclosure statement and use the packet's notary option or its qualified-witness option; financial authority is a separate document.
