Frequently Asked Questions

A Health Care Power of Attorney Revocation is a legal document used to formally notify that a previously appointed Health Care Agent no longer has authority to make medical decisions on behalf of the Grantor. It is essential for ensuring that healthcare providers are aware of the change.

To complete the revocation form, the Grantor must fill out the required information, sign the document, and provide copies to the previously appointed Health Care Agent and relevant healthcare providers. It is also advisable to keep a copy for personal records.

No, a verbal revocation is not sufficient. Most jurisdictions, including New Hampshire, require that the revocation be documented in writing to be legally recognized and enforceable.

Yes, a Grantor can revoke their Health Care Power of Attorney at any time as long as they are of sound mind. It is important to follow the proper legal procedures to ensure the revocation is valid.

If you do not revoke your Health Care Power of Attorney, the appointed agent retains the authority to make medical decisions on your behalf, even if your wishes or circumstances change. This can lead to decisions being made that do not align with your current preferences.

Is This Form Right For You?

Use This Form If:

  • Individuals who have previously designated a Health Care Agent may find it necessary to revoke that designation due to changes in personal relationships or circumstances. For instance, if the appointed agent is no longer able or willing to act on their behalf, the Grantor must formally revoke the existing Power of Attorney to ensure their medical decisions are made by someone else.
  • Situations requiring a change in medical decision-making authority often arise when a person’s health deteriorates or when they feel their values and wishes are not being adequately represented. In such cases, revoking the existing Health Care Power of Attorney allows the Grantor to appoint a new agent who better aligns with their current preferences.
  • To comply with legal standards, it is essential for individuals to formally document the revocation of a Health Care Power of Attorney. This ensures that healthcare providers are aware of the change and that the previous agent no longer has the authority to make decisions on the Grantor's behalf.
  • For those who have experienced a significant life event, such as a divorce or the death of a spouse, it may be prudent to revoke an existing Health Care Power of Attorney. This action protects the Grantor’s interests and ensures that their medical care is managed by someone who reflects their current wishes.
  • In cases where a Grantor has moved to a different state, they may need to revoke their previous Health Care Power of Attorney to comply with the new state's laws. This ensures that the appointed agent is recognized under the new jurisdiction and that the Grantor’s healthcare preferences are respected.

Do Not Use If:

  • – This form is not appropriate if the Grantor is currently incapacitated and unable to make decisions regarding their health care. In such cases, a legal guardian or conservator may need to be appointed instead.
  • – If the Grantor has not previously established a Health Care Power of Attorney, there is no need to use this revocation form. Instead, they may want to create a new Power of Attorney document.
  • – The revocation form should not be used if the Grantor is uncertain about their decision to revoke the Power of Attorney. It is crucial to be confident in the decision to ensure that medical decisions are made by the appropriate person.
  • – In situations where the Grantor wishes to temporarily suspend the authority of their Health Care Agent, a revocation is not the correct approach. Instead, they may need to consider a different legal mechanism, such as a temporary appointment or a specific directive.
