What is an Advance Healthcare Directive?

An Advance Healthcare Directive is a legal document that spells out your medical preferences if you're ever unable to speak for yourself. It tells doctors and loved ones what treatments you do or don't want, and designates someone you trust to make healthcare decisions on your behalf.

Nobody wants to think about this in their 30s. But if something unexpected happens and this document doesn't exist, your family is left guessing — and in some cases, fighting — over what you would have wanted.

Why it matters: It takes minutes to set up and gives everyone peace of mind for years.

The New Chapter Bundle includes an Advance Healthcare Directive for both you and your partner. Two people covered, one step.
