<P class=MsoNormal>Re-opening a dialogue of about six weeks ago, I have a
question about the new Power of Attorney Act when applied to the development
of Durable POA’s for Clients to sign.<U></U><U></U></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><U></U><U></U> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Very often, I have clients who prefer to have different
persons making financial decisions as opposed to health care decisions.
For that reason, I have, over the past number of years, had clients sign a
separate Health Care DPA and a separate DPA for Financial Affairs. The
Health Care providers seemed to prefer that approach, and with all of the
HIPPA stuff we were dealing with over the past number of years, there was
enough stuff to put into a Health Care DPA.<U></U><U></U></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><U></U><U></U> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>In studying the new Act related to my development of
new DPA forms, I saw nothing in the statute that would make me think that I
need to have two different such documents anymore. However, I also saw
nothing in the new Act that would prevent the appointment of an “Agent” solely
for Health Care decisions, and an “Agent” solely for non-health care decisions
in the same new DPA document.<U></U><U></U></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><U></U><U></U> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Has anyone noted anything in the statute that would prevent
such an approach, and does anyone see any pitfalls of doing so in an
appropriate circumstance? <U></U><U></U></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><U></U><U></U> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Yes, I know that is a compound question, but please be
patient with an older fellow.<U></U><U></U></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><U></U><U></U> </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Thanks for any of your insights.<U></U><U></U></P>
