Allows a surrogate decision maker to execute a POLST portable medical orders form to forgo life sustaining treatment. In a Section regarding Department of Public Health Uniform POLST forms, deletes the definition of "attending health care practitioner" and replaces references to "attending health care practitioner" with "qualified health care practitioner".
