Pursuant to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ( HIPAA ) and any similar state laws, and exclusively for the purpose of making a determination of my incapacitation or inability to direct my own health care decisions and obtaining a physician affidavit of such, I authorize any health care provider to disclose to the person named herein as my health care agent or alternate health care agent, as applicable, any pertinent individually identifiable health information sufficient to determine whether I am by reason of illness or mental or physical disability incapacitated or incapable of directing my own health care decisions.
