Abstract
Personal wellness not only is a matter of physical well-being. It is also based on financial security and planning. This is the case in making decisions about one's own personal health care system provisions. Each person has the right to decide about his or her health care system prior to becoming disabled and unable to make such decisions. In the case of incurable disease and comatic existence or needing life support, a person should have signed powers of attorney and living wills that will be adhered to when the need arises. This article will present these personal financial health care system provisions.
