 (from Ch. 110 1/2, par. 802-1)Sec. 2-1. Purpose. The General Assembly recognizes that each  individual has the right to appoint an agent to make property, financial,   personal, and health care decisions for the individual but that this right  cannot be fully effective unless the principal may empower the agent to act  throughout the principal's lifetime, including during periods of  disability, and have confidence that third parties will honor the agent's authority  at all times.The General Assembly finds that in the light of modern financial needs  and advances in medical science, the statutory recognition of this right of  delegation in Illinois needs to be restated, which will, among other things, expand the   application and the permissible scope of the agent's authority, clarify  the power of the individual to authorize an agent to make financial and  care decisions for the individual and better protect health care personnel  and other third parties who rely in good faith on the agent so that  reliance will be assured.  Nothing in this Act shall be deemed to  authorize or encourage euthanasia, suicide or any action or course of  action that violates the criminal law of this State or the United States.  Similarly, nothing in this Act shall be deemed to authorize or encourage  any violation of a civil right expressed in the Constitution, statutes,  case law and administrative rulings of this State (including, without  limitation, the right of conscience respected and protected by the Health  Care Right of Conscience Act, as now or hereafter amended) or the  United States or any action or course of action that violates the public policy  expressed in the Constitution, statutes, case law and administrative rulings of  this State or the United States.

 (from Ch. 110 1/2, par. 802-3)Sec. 2-3. Definitions. As used in this Act:(a) "Agency" means the written power of attorney or other instrument of  agency governing the relationship between the principal and agent or the  relationship, itself, as appropriate to the context, and includes agencies  dealing with personal or health care as well as property.  An agency is  subject to this Act to the extent it may be controlled by the principal,  excluding agencies and powers for the benefit of the agent.(b) "Agent" means the attorney-in-fact or other person designated to act  for the principal in the agency.(c) "Person with a disability" has the same meaning as in the "Probate Act of  1975", as now or hereafter amended.  To be under a "disability" means to be a person with a disability.(c-5) "Incapacitated", when used to describe a principal, means that the principal is under a legal disability as defined in Section 11a-2 of the Probate Act of 1975. A principal shall also be considered incapacitated if: (i) a physician licensed to practice medicine in all of its branches has examined the principal and has determined that the principal lacks decision making capacity; (ii) that physician has made a written record of this determination and has signed the written record within 90 days after the examination; and (iii) the written record has been delivered to the agent. The agent may rely conclusively on the written record.(d) "Person" means an individual, corporation, trust, partnership or  other entity, as appropriate to the agency.(e) "Principal" means an individual (including, without limitation, an  individual acting as trustee, representative or other fiduciary) who signs  a power of attorney or other instrument of agency granting powers to an agent.

 (from Ch. 110 1/2, par. 802-5)Sec. 2-5. Duration of agency - amendment and revocation. Unless the  agency states an earlier termination date, the agency continues until the  death of the principal, notwithstanding any lapse of time, the principal's  disability or incapacity or appointment of a guardian for the principal  after the agency is signed.  Every agency may be amended or revoked by the  principal, if the principal has the capacity to do so, at any time and in any manner communicated to the agent or to any  other person related to the subject matter of the agency, except that  revocation and amendment of health care agencies are governed by Section 4-6  of this Act except to the extent the terms of the agencies are inconsistent  with that Section. The execution of a power of attorney does not revoke a power of attorney previously executed by the principal unless the subsequent power of attorney provides that the previous power of attorney is revoked or that all other powers of attorney are revoked.

Effect of disability-divorce.(a) All acts of the agent  within the scope of the agency during any period of disability, incapacity  or incompetency of the principal have the same effect and inure to the  benefit of and bind the principal and his or her successors in interest as  if the principal were competent and not a person with a disability.(b) If a court enters a judgement of dissolution of marriage or legal  separation between the principal and his or her spouse after the agency is  signed, the spouse shall be deemed to have died at the time of the judgment  for all purposes of the agency.

 (from Ch. 110 1/2, par. 802-9)Sec. 2-9. Preservation of estate plan and trusts. In exercising powers  granted under the agency, including powers of amendment or revocation and  powers to expend or withdraw property passing by trust, contract or  beneficiary designation at the principal's death (such as, without  limitation, specifically bequeathed property, joint accounts, life  insurance, trusts and retirement plans), the agent shall take the  principal's estate plan into account insofar as it is known to the agent  and shall attempt to preserve the plan, but the agent shall not be liable  to any plan beneficiary under this Section unless the agent acts in bad  faith.  An agent may not revoke or amend a trust revocable or amendable by  the principal or require the trustee of any trust for the benefit of the  principal to pay income or principal to the agent without specific  authority and specific reference to the trust in the agency.  The agent  shall have access to and the right to copy (but not to hold) the  principal's will, trusts and other personal papers and records to the  extent the agent deems relevant for purposes of this Section. This Section shall  not  apply  to  any  Totten  Trust,  Payable  on  Death  Account, or comparable  trust  account  arrangement  where  the terms of such trust are contained entirely on the financial institution's signature card insofar as an  agent acting under a power of attorney executed in accordance with this Act shall be permitted to withdraw income or principal from such account if the  power  of  attorney  grants  the  agent authority to conduct financial institution   transactions  on  the  principal's  behalf  and  the  agent's authority  to  access  such account is not expressly limited or withheld in the agency.

Sec. 2-10.3. Successor agents.(a)  A principal may designate one or more successor agents to act if an initial or predecessor agent resigns, dies, becomes incapacitated, is not qualified to serve, or declines to serve.  A principal may grant authority to another person, designated by name, by office, or by function, including an initial or successor agent, to designate one or more successor agents.  Unless a power of attorney otherwise provides, a successor agent has the same authority as that granted to an initial agent.(b)  An agent is not liable for the actions of another agent, including a predecessor agent, unless the agent participates in or conceals a breach of fiduciary duty committed by the other agent.  An agent who has knowledge of a breach or imminent breach of fiduciary duty by another agent must notify the principal and, if the principal is incapacitated, take whatever actions may be reasonably appropriate in the circumstances to safeguard the principal's best interest.(c)  Any person who acts in good faith reliance on the representation of a successor agent regarding the unavailability of a predecessor agent will be fully protected and released to the same extent as though the reliant had dealt directly with the predecessor agent.  Upon request, the successor agent shall furnish an affidavit or Successor Agent's Certification and Acceptance of Authority to the reliant, but good faith reliance on a document purporting to establish an agency will protect the reliant without the affidavit or Successor Agent's Certification and Acceptance of Authority.  A Successor Agent's Certification and Acceptance of Authority shall be in substantially the following form: SUCCESSOR AGENT'S CERTIFICATION AND ACCEPTANCE OF AUTHORITY I certify that the attached is a true copy of a power of attorney naming the undersigned as agent or successor agent for .......... (insert name of principal).I certify that to the best of my knowledge the principal had the capacity to execute the power of attorney, is alive, and has not revoked the power of attorney; that my powers as agent have not been altered or terminated; and that the power of attorney remains in full force and effect.I certify that to the best of my knowledge .......... (insert name of unavailable agent) is unavailable due to ................. (specify death, resignation, absence, illness, or other temporary incapacity).I accept appointment as agent under this power of attorney.This certification and acceptance is made under penalty of perjury.*Dated: ................................... (Agent's Signature) ....................... (Print Agent's Name) ....................... (Agent's Address)*(NOTE: Perjury is defined in Section 32-2 of the Criminal Code of 2012, and  is a Class 3 felony.)  (Source: P.A. 96-1195, eff. 7-1-11; 97-1150, eff. 1-25-13.)

 (from Ch. 110 1/2, par. 803-1)Sec. 3-1.     Purpose.     The General Assembly finds that the public interest  requires a standardized form of power of attorney that individuals may use  to authorize an agent to act for them in dealing with their property and  financial affairs.A short statutory form offering a set of optional powers is necessary so  that the individual may design the power of attorney best suited to his or  her needs in a simple fashion and be assured that the agent's authority  will be honored by third parties with whom the agent deals, regardless of  the physical or mental condition of the principal at the time the power  is exercised.The General Assembly intends that when a power in substantially the form  set forth in this Act is used, third parties who rely in good faith on the  acts of the agent within the scope of the power may do so without fear of  liability to the principal.  However, this form is not meant to be  exclusive and other forms of power of attorney may be used.    (Source: P.A. 85-701.)

Sec. 3-3.6. Limitations on who may witness property powers.(a) Every property power shall bear the signature of a witness to the signing of the agency and shall be notarized.  None of the following may serve as a witness to the signing of a property power or as a notary public notarizing the property power:(1) the attending physician or mental health service     provider of the principal, or a relative of the physician or provider;(2) an owner, operator, or relative of an owner or     operator of a health care facility in which the principal is a patient or resident;(3) a parent, sibling, or descendant, or the spouse     of a parent, sibling, or descendant, of either the principal or any agent or successor agent, regardless of whether the relationship is by blood, marriage, or adoption;(4) an agent or successor agent for property.(b) The prohibition on the operator of a health care facility from serving as a witness shall extend to directors and executive officers of an operator that is a corporate entity but not other employees of the operator.

755 ILCS 45/4-1
2021 Illinois Compiled Statutes|Chapter 755 - ESTATES|755 ILCS 45/ - Illinois Power of Attorney Act.|Article IV - Powers Of Attorney For Health Care

 (from Ch. 110 1/2, par. 804-1)Sec. 4-1. Purpose. The General Assembly recognizes the right of the  individual to control all aspects of his or her personal care and medical  treatment, including the right to decline medical treatment or to direct  that it be withdrawn, even if death ensues.  The right of the individual to  decide about personal care overrides the obligation of the physician and  other health care providers to render care or to preserve life and health.However, if the individual becomes a person with a disability, her or his right to control  treatment may be denied unless the individual, as principal, can delegate  the decision making power to a trusted agent and be sure that the agent's  power to make personal and health care decisions for the principal will be  effective to the same extent as though made by the principal.The Illinois statutory recognition of the right of delegation for health  care purposes needs to be restated to make it clear that its scope is  intended to be as broad as the comparable right of delegation for property  and financial matters.  However, the General Assembly recognizes that  powers concerning life and death and the other issues involved in health  care agencies are more sensitive than property matters and that particular  rules and forms are necessary for health care agencies to insure their  validity and efficacy and to protect health care providers so that they  will honor the authority of the agent at all times.  For purposes of  emphasis and their particular application to health care, the General  Assembly restates the purposes and public policy announced in Article II,  Section 2-1 of this Act as if those purposes and public policies were set  forth verbatim in this Section.In furtherance of these purposes, the General Assembly adopts this Article,  setting forth general principles governing health care agencies and a statutory  short form power of attorney for health care, intending that when a power  in substantially the form set forth in this Article is used, health care  providers and other third parties who rely in good faith on the acts and  decisions of the agent within the scope of the power may do so without fear  of civil or criminal liability to the principal, the State or any other  person.  However, the form of health care agency in this Article is not  intended to be exclusive and other forms of powers of attorney chosen by  the principal that comply with Section 4-5 of this Article may offer powers and  protection similar to the statutory short form power of attorney for health care.
