Advance Healthcare Directives
Discover the importance and uses of advance healthcare directives in estate planning, ensuring your medical wishes are respected.
How can advance healthcare directives impact your estate plan?
Advance healthcare directives provide a structured way to communicate your medical treatment preferences in case you're unable to make decisions due to illness or incapacity. They ensure that your medical wishes are respected, preventing possible disputes among family members about care decisions. In an estate plan, they complement other documents like wills or trusts, by providing clarity around healthcare decisions, potentially reducing stress for loved ones during difficult times.
