New Health Care Decisions Act forms now available The Tennessee Department of Health (TDOH) Board for Licensing Health Care Facilities has approved new forms for use under the the new Tennessee Health Care Decisions Act (HCDA), which went into effect July 1, 2004. The TDOH forms are model forms — they are not mandatory. Valid, individualized forms may be created under the HCDA, and forms may be customized to suit individual preferences. Draft final regulations have been completed by TDOH, and are now awaiting the Attorney General's approval. These forms may be used even before the regulations are finalized.
