The main question these documents address is “who controls your health care if you are not able to make decisions yourself?”
The Documents:
Kansas statutes make two legal documents available to you to make sure your wishes are followed:
Small Estates Affidavit
This is a form to create an affidavit available through the Kansas Judicial Council.
UPDATE: The Kansas Judicial Council recently increased the small estate affidavit cap to $75,000. This form allows the heirs to transfer up to $75,000 in assets (usually bank accounts) to all the heirs, without any thing going through probate court.
Attached is a brochure that explains all about the Health Care Durable Power of Attorney.
What is a Power of Attorney for Children?
These forms (available at the end of the page) can be used to give another person the power to care for your child in a crisis. With this document, another person will have legal authority for health, medical and other major decisions, within limits, when you're absent.
A Power of Attorney for Children is most often used by parents to allow a short-term caretaker to make decisions. This is often used when they're gone for work, vacation or otherwise out of town.
