Michigan enacted POLST legislation back in November 2017 that became effective in February 2018. Finally, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services released a proposed form and rules. Notable features include"If a change in a patient's medical condition makes the medical orders . . . contrary to generally accepted health care standards, the attending health professional may revoke the MI-POST." This is similar to POLST rules in Maryland and Vermont. The MI-POST is valid for only one year and must be reaffirmed or revoked.
