Relates to health care proxy information on driver's licenses
This bill adds space on New York driver's licenses for health care proxy information. It requires the back of every license to include the statement: "If you have completed a health care proxy form, you may list your health care agent here:" followed by space for the agent's name and contact details. The change directly affects all driver's license holders who have designated a health care proxy, allowing them to easily reference their proxy on a commonly carried document without altering existing proxy laws or requiring new fees.
