Do you have an advance directive or living will? That complies with state laws?

Do you wonder while a hospital or doctor visit, you were asked this question?  The answer is because these organizations where required to asked the question starting in 2011.   In 2016, they will be required to go farther if you answer “yes” – they want access to the document(s).

The reason for this post is that there are several well intended websites popping up to help people create advance directives.  HOWEVER – BE CAREFUL.  I have not found any that deal with specific state laws on this subject.  It would be a real disappointment that if you took the time and energy to create the document, that your wishes were not followed do to a state specific regulation.
