You are visiting with Mr. Tully and his daughter at her request. He has advanced Alzheimer’s and is incapable of understanding the implications of choosing a Medicare Advantage or prescription drug plan. Can his daughter fill out the enrollment form and sign it for him?
Mr. Tully’s daughter can do so only, if she is authorized under state law as a court-appointed legal guardian, has a durable power of attorney for health care decisions, or is authorized under state surrogate consent laws to make health decisions.
