Plain-language change summary

The updated version of Bill SB 2673 now explicitly includes "hospital" alongside other entities like cemeteries and funeral directors that can act under the terms of the document. This change matters because it clarifies that hospitals are also authorized to rely on this document, which could streamline processes involving end-of-life decisions and improve communication among various organizations handling such matters. By clearly stating that any modifications or revocations won't take effect until the relevant party is notified, the bill ensures that all parties are protected from liability while acting on the document.
