The agent is obligated to act in the best interests of the principal, following the instructions outlined in the document. This authority is not subject to direct override by other family members, even if they believe they have the principals best interests at heart.
The health care proxy becomes effective only when you become unable to make decisions, as determined by a physician. Until then, you continue to be in charge of making your own health care decisions. It can be revoked orally, and you always have the right while competent to sign a new health care proxy.
The Health Care Proxy Law lets you voluntarily appoint a competent adult to make decisions about your medical treatment in the event you lose the ability to decide for yourself including decisions to remove or provide life-sustaining treatment.
You may appoint an alternate agent to decide for you if your health care agent is unavailable, unable or unwilling to act when decisions must be made. Otherwise, health care providers will make health care decisions for you that follow instructions you gave while you were still able to do so.
If a patient does not have a health care proxy, a legal guardian (or the person highest in priority from the surrogate list, known as the surrogate) makes decisions.
