This section contains data defining the patient’s advance directives and any reference
to supporting documentation, including living wills, healthcare proxies, and CPR and
resuscitation status. If the referenced documents are available, they can be included
in the exchange package. The most recent directives are required, if known, and should
be listed in as much
detail as possible. This section differentiates between "advance directives" and "advance
directive documents". The former is the directions to be followed whereas the latter
refers to a legal document containing those directions.
