Conservatorship is a legal relationship between a competent adult and a person who is no longer able to make their own responsible decisions. The conservator must be appointed by the court and can be authorized to make legal, financial, and health care decisions and reports to the court on a regular basis.

Representative Payee is a person designated by the Social Security Administration or other retirement plans to receive the income and pay the expenses of an incapacitate individual.

Choosing someone ahead of time let’s you control to some degree what kind of care you get. Family members can not always be the right person, sometimes they simply don’t have the time to spend seeing that you get the right care.
