What is a medical power of attorney in Texas?

A medical power of attorney lets a person choose someone to make health care decisions if they cannot make those decisions themselves. It is often paired with other incapacity documents. The chosen agent should understand the person's wishes and be able to communicate with family and medical providers.

This is general information for Texas readers, not legal advice for a specific matter. The right answer can change when documents, deadlines, family conflict, taxes, business interests, fiduciary duties, or court requirements are involved.
