Question:
My daughter is going off to college next month and I read an article that you wrote a few years ago about having a Power-of-Attorney and Health Care Proxy for her. Where do I get something like that?
Answer:
Great question! If you are working with an attorney, they will often prepare one for you at a low cost. Also, check with the college, they may have some documents that they will keep on file that will allow you to access information. Once your child turns 18, they have to give you permission under HIPAA to access their medical information, so make sure a HIPAA authorization form is on file as well.
