On this Asset Protection Today podcast we talk about the issues and planning necessary so you can protect your assets — but we turn to a topic that is difficult for many to address: a living will. However, in the grand scheme of things, it is equally important — not so much for asset protection but for family harmony and psychological well being. Living Will Background The first living will was first created in 1967 by human rights attorney Luis Kutner after experiencing the long and painful illness of a close friend. He advocated for a document allowing people to express their final wishes about using medical life support treatments when nearing death. This concept gained national attention with the case of Karen Ann Quinlan a young woman in a vegetative state. Her father fought in court to have the right to make legally binding decisions about her treatment and it paved the way for a legal precedent that allows us the right to have our treatment decisions honored, even in the event we are not mentally present to be able to actively voice our wishes. Importance of the Health Care Agent Living Wills and DNRs are documents that tell doctors what your wishes are in the event that you can’t communicate with them about treatment options. However you really need to give some thought about granting your health care agent the opportunity to take charge in the event they have concerns. They should also question what decisions and choices the attending doctor wants to make. In many circumstances there is a very strong argument to be made that family members are better interpreters of your wishes than a transactional health care provider at a hospital. After the fact is too late, so make your plans today to talk to an experienced elder law attorney.
Listen NowEarlier this year St. Martin's Press published Dr. Haider Warraich's Modern Death, How Medicine Changed the End of Life. As the dust jacket notes, "the mechanics and understanding" of dying, "the whys, wheres, whens and hows are almost nothing like what they were mere decades ago." Today, eight in ten Americans die at an advanced age, or under Medicare, die in a medical setting after suffering for some while from a chronic, eventually fatal disease or diseases. If lucky, how Americans die will have been determined, or at least informed, by an advanced directive or like document. During this 27 minute conversation Dr. Warraich discusses what characterizes "modern death," how the 1970s Karen Ann Quinlan case redefined death or dying, the role family caregivers play and the unintended consequences for them in providing a family member care, the limitations of advanced directives and living wills, euthanasia, physician assisted suicide and terminal or palliative sedation and whether "how medicine changed the end of life" has made "modern death" comparatively better. Dr. Haider Javed Warraich is currently fellow in cardiology at Duke University Medical Center. He was graduate from medical school in Pakistan in 2009 and did his residency in internal medicine at the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, a teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School He is a regular opinion page contributor to The New York Times, The Atlantic, The Guardian, The Wall Street Journal, the LA Times and has contributed to several academic publications such as The New England Journal of Medicine, the Journal of the American Medical Association, Lancet and Circulation. During the interview mention is made of a November 28, 2016 Fresh Air (NPR) interview titled, "The Debate Across the Nation Over Death With Dignity Laws," that featured Dr. Warraich along with Dr. Ira Byock. The interview is at: https://dianerehm.org/shows/2016-11-28/aid-in-dying. This is a public episode.
