A medical power of attorney (also known as an advanced directive or healthcare proxy) is a legal document that allows an individual (the principal) to designate someone else to make healthcare decisions on their behalf. The principal retains control over their healthcare until a physician determines they lack the capacity to make such decisions, due to incapacitation from events like a coma or mental impairment. For a medical power of attorney to be valid, it must comply with state laws, typically requiring signatures witnessed by others or a notary public. Additionally, the principal must be at least 18 years old and of sound mind at the time of signing.
