When it comes to power of attorney, the medical agent and the financial agent don't have to be the same person. A medical agent should understand a parent's values around healthcare and stay calm under pressure, while a financial agent should be organized, trustworthy with money, and comfortable with paperwork and deadlines. Sometimes one family member is the right fit for both, and other times splitting the roles plays to each person's strengths.

Our latest blog explains what each document authorizes, why it's better to put both in place sooner, and questions to verify before finalizing, such as whether a financial power of attorney is durable. Read the full post for a complete breakdown of each document and role.
