That's just how the health care system is, much like the health care system in general.

It's all complicated.

So you have one person for your medical decisions if you're not able to.

every state is different.

So you might be Googling as an adult child, how can I help my parents?

And oh, here's a template for a health care proxy.

Well, that actually was for a Michigan template.

You've got to make sure you're Googling correctly and it's for the actual state that you live in.

So a health care proxy or a health care power of attorney in some states, it's called, kind of assigns

the one person that's gonna be in charge of your medical decisions if you're not able to.

What does that mean?

When you're on death's door, yes, that is what it means, but it also means a lot of other things.

When you're heavily medicated and you broke your leg and you just need a little assistance and you need someone to be there, the doctors to say, how much of this should I take a day?

What are the side effects?

It's nice to have someone else there.

Or in a lot of cases, we're going to be dealing with families that have dementia, parents that have dementia.

And so, yes, there should be someone there and the doctors or any kind of situation where they can make those medical decisions or just at least listen to what the doctor or the nutritionist or whoever else is talking.

So the health care proxy is important.

There's other documents, and I call them the supplemental documents that you might want to put the other kids' names in, you know, because they're not as important, but they're important.

So one of them is like the HIPAA form, who can access your medical records.
