There are three important legal documents you will need in order to fully manage your parents’ medical care. First of all, you need a HIPAA authorization so that you can review their health records. Secondly, you should become their medical power of attorney, which allows you to make legal decisions about their health care. Third, make sure your parents have a living will, which outlines their end-of-life care decisions ahead of time.
