Advance directives are important legal documents that outline your health care wishes and help reduce stress for your family and doctors. However, for these directives to be effective, your family and medical team need to access them when needed.

Unfortunately, this isn't always the case. Research shows that emergency room doctors find patients' advance directives in hospital records only about 10% of the time. This means that while advance directives are valuable, they only work if they're available when needed.

Since it's not practical to carry these documents with you everywhere, we've partnered with DocuBank to help. DocuBank ensures that your advance directives are accessible anytime, anywhere.

With DocuBank, hospital staff can quickly access your documents via fax or print them from the DocuBank website. They'll also get important information like the names and contact details of your emergency contacts and primary care physician. Your allergies and medical conditions are included as well, so doctors can give you the best care.

Your DocuBank membership also includes an online SAFE, a secure website where you can store all your important estate planning and personal documents. This means you can access your important files from anywhere in the world, anytime.

Using DocuBank is simple and valuable. You'll get a personalized Emergency Card to keep in your wallet. If you're hospitalized, you, a family member, or hospital staff can use the card to contact DocuBank and access your documents immediately. The service is available 24/7, so you don't have to worry about last-minute scrambling.
