==About==
In [[North Carolina]], information about filing a [[Healthcare Power of Attorney]] (HPoA) is found in the [https://www.sosnc.gov/ahcdr/Forms.aspx "ADVANCE HEALTH CARE DIRECTIVE REGISTRY"] section of the Secretary of State's web site.
==Process==
''The following should not be construed as legal advice.''

It would appear that the process of creating a HPoA involves the following steps:
* Print out copies of the HPoA form (currently last revised in 2007)
** Be sure to include one for yourself, one for each agent you designate, and one for the registry
* Fill them out.
* Get each one notarized.
* Optional but probably a good idea:
** Print out a copy of the Registration Form
** Fill it out and mail it in with one copy of the HPoA and $10

It does not appear to be necessary to file anything with the court.
