Information is key in an emergency situation. When you protect your Healthcare Directives (Living Will, Health Care Power of Attorney) with DocuBank, you receive a personalized DocuBank Emergency Card that makes all of your Healthcare Directives and information known available in two convenient ways:
By Phone: By calling (800) DOCUBANK (362-8226) , DocuBank delivers your information immediately by fax.
By Computer: By clicking the Get Directives button or going to www.getdirectives.com , you can view, print, and fax documents immediately for hospital staff.
In 1993, DocuBank was founded by a couple, who worked in the health care industry, who had seen too many frantic people hunt for documents and directives in emergencies. These two people asked themselves: wouldn't it be nice if there were a way to consolidate crucial medical information and store it in one easy, accessible place—so loved ones wouldn't have to search and guess at these stressful times? DocuBank was born — the first national registry of its kind.
To date, DocuBank has enrolled over 400,000 members and partnered with thousands of estate planning professionals. It fulfills approximately 300 requests for documents each month. As always, DocuBank delivers to ensure that its members get the right care, in a timely manner, while surrounded by their strongest advocates.
