What is a Pennsylvania Medical Power of Attorney?

A Pennsylvania Medical Power of Attorney is a legal document that gives a selected individual or organization permission to make health-related decisions on your behalf, such as accepting or refusing a certain medical treatment, when you cannot do so.

The person granting permission is called the "principal," and the people or organizations gaining authority are known as the "agents." Suited for Pennsylvania residents, our Power of Attorney for health care is made for use in Philadelphia County, Allegheny County, Montgomery County, and in every other county or municipality in the state. All Pennsylvania Healthcare PoA forms from Rocket Lawyer can be modified to address your unique situation. This essential document will provide verification to healthcare facilities and other parties that your selected agent can make choices for you.

When to use a Pennsylvania Medical Power of Attorney:

• You have concerns about your health and want to be prepared for worst-case scenarios.
• You want a certain person you trust to take over your medical decisions if you become unable to do so yourself.
