General Power of Attorney
My Husband made the Mistake before we were Married to let his Ex Wife have a General Power of Attorney in order to only sign small things about the house he owned for his Kids Sake while he was away because he was an over the road Truck Driver , they got into a fued and as he was trying to get it canceled before he could she used her P.O.A to Transfer his house to her name making her Owner of the House ! Is This at all Legal since she was Not Doing this in His Best Interest, but stealing his house for herself !?!?

Concerning HIPPA
HIPPA was effective 4/14/03. I am a medicaid caseworker and am concerned now about access to my mother’s health information and my ability to make various applications for her in the future. I am also concerned what provisions my husband and I need to make now to allow an adult child to have access to our health information and take care of any other health related matters on our behalf. Currently, according to our understanding, the only people allowed access, etc. are spouses, parents, payees, POA’s or legal guardians. I called and spoke to a local lawyer who suggested a living will but I do not think his understood my question.Can you advise me concerning what we need to do?

Power of Attorneys
Is there a difference between a medical power of attorney and a living will? My husband is deploying to Iraq, and they recommend he has one. However, I have seen multiple places say that they are the same thing. Could you please help?
