Where can I go for help?
Although all 50 states have laws recognizing the use of advance directives for health care, they impose similar but slightly different requirements. You may wish to start by inquiring with your personal physician or estate planning attorney. Information regarding your particular state's laws is likely to be found on Web sites for your State Statutes, Governor, Attorney General, Department of Health, Department of Social Services, State Bar Association or State Medical Library. When using the Internet, make sure you are accessing the latest and most accurate information about your state's health-care advance directives.
