What Is Incapacity Planning?
Incapacity planning involves legally establishing directives to manage your affairs in case you become unable to do so yourself. This plan ensures that a trusted person can make healthcare, financial, and personal decisions on your behalf according to your preferences.
Why Is Incapacity Planning Important?
Without an incapacity plan, your family may encounter legal and financial difficulties, including:
- Delayed access to financial accounts.
- Uncertainty regarding your medical care preferences.
- Court proceedings to appoint a guardian or conservator.
- Potential disputes among family members.
By planning ahead, you maintain control over your future and provide clarity for your loved ones.
What Does an Incapacity Plan in Texas Include?
A well-structured incapacity plan in the Design District typically includes:
- Living Will – Outlines your preferences for medical care and end-of-life treatment.
- HIPAA Release Document – Grants access to your medical records for designated individuals.
- Health Care Power of Attorney (HCPA) – Appoints someone you trust to make healthcare decisions on your behalf.
