Official summary
Abstract published by the legislature (via Open States). Text as published by the legislature; reproduced verbatim.
Section 2527 of Title 16, which will become effective on September 30, 2025, originates from Section 27 of the Uniform Law Commission’s Uniform Health-Care Decisions Act. The Uniform Law Commission found that the word “other” was added in error to the final Uniform Health-Care Decisions Act. This Act adopts this correction by deleting the word “other” from § 2527 of Title 16. This Act takes effect on September 30, 2025, to coincide with the effective date of § 2527 of Title 16.
