Appointing a Representative
You have the right to appoint a representative (such as a relative, friend, advocate, attorney, physician, etc) to act on your behalf. Both you and the person you have named as an authorized representative will need to sign the representative form, unless your representative is a lawyer. In that case, only your signature is needed. If your prescribing doctor calls on your behalf no representative form will be required.
