10-OCFS-ADM-12: Health Care Proxy for Youth Transitioning Out of Care
The purpose of this Administrative Directive is to advise local departments of social services (LDSS) and voluntary authorized agencies of the new requirements of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (P.L. 111-148). This law ensures that youth who are aging out of foster care have access to information and education about the importance of having a health care proxy, and that youth are provided the opportunity to obtain and complete a health care proxy with the appropriate assistance.
