Advance Health Care Directive

Ready to complete the form?

    The documents and processes for making your Life Care Plan vary by state. To begin, please select your region. 

    Your Life Care Plan can be made legally binding in the State of Georgia. Although there are a number of documents and processes legally approved by your state to complete this task, ideally we would like you to complete an AHCD (Advance Health Care Directive). 

    Please make sure that any legal document you complete is shared with both your health care agent and Kaiser Permanente.

    If you would like help with completing your AHCD, please call 1-770-431-4162.
