What Health Care Documents Do I Need During COVID-19?

May 15, 2020 by Alexander M. Pagnotta, Estate Planning Attorney

Untitled-design a face mask

If you are ever unable to communicate your medical wishes, then medical professionals may look to your Living Will, Durable Health Care Power of Attorney, and HIPAA authorization documents to provide the appropriate guidance.

Studies Show Electronic Health Records Routinely Fail to Give Doctors Access to Advance Directives

An advance Health Care Directive lays out who you want to speak for you and what kind of treatments you want. In this way, you are prepared before health care decisions need to be made. You can make an Advance Directive if you are 18 years or older and capable of making your own … [Read more...] about Concerned About Being Too Sick to Make Decisions

Client Review
September 3, 2020
    

We initiated estate planning following a presentation by Sinclair Prosser Attorney Jon Gasior. We were so impressed, we contracted with them to complete our estate planning. Subsequently, we assembled information on our assets and Sinclair Prosser Gasior did the rest. Correspondence was communicated to our financial institutions and the estate was established. We were very pleased with the courteous manner of the Sinclair Prosser Gasior staff. However, it was their professionalism that made us satisfied we chose this firm to handle our estate. We have nothing but praise for Sinclair Prosser Gasior .
