Advance directives are an important piece of your estate plan, yet if they are not easily accessible, your wishes may not be followed. Michigan has a new law, the “Peace of Mind” registry, which gives the health care provider access to a secure central database where your end-of-life wishes will be stored.
As a free service to Michigan residents, this registry will make an advance directive accessible no matter where a Michigan resident may travel in the United States.  To learn more about Michigan’s Peace of Mind registry, click on the following link:  https://www.mipeaceofmind.org/
“The decisions we make about the care we want at the end of our lives are extremely personal and important. Making these decisions accessible to doctors, and especially our loved ones, will substantially improve quality of life and give peace of mind” said Senator Jim Marleau, R-Lake Orion, chair of the Senate Committee on Health Policy.
An advance directive is a legal document which allows an individual to specify patient advocates, religious preferences, and other decisions about end-of-life care ahead of time.
Eyestone Law Offices will provides our clients access to this service as well as an additional service accessible worldwide.
