What is a Health Care Power of Attorney, and how is it different from a Power of Attorney?
A Health Care Power of Attorney is just what it says – “health care.” A Health Care Power of Attorney is used only for health care and does not include signing checks, selling property, or any of the other matters which may be included in a general Power of Attorney. A Health Care Power of Attorney gives someone the right to sign for someone else for the sole purpose of health care.
