The Department of Health and Human Services will hold a public hearing to receive public comments on  
proposed changes to the Michigan Physician Orders for Scope of Treatment rule set.  
Michigan Physician's Orders for Scope of Treatment (MI POST) is an optional, 1 page, 2-sided medical  
order documenting a person's wish regarding his or her care in a health crisis. MI POST is a part of the  
advance care planning process that include choices about Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), critical  
care, and other wanted care. It is intended to guide care only if the person cannot tell others what to do  
at that time. The purpose of these rules is to comply with the statutory mandate of MCL 333.5676(1)(c) in  
creating this form and instructions on how to complete the form, reauthorize, and/ or revoke the form.  
(By authority conferred on the director of the department of health and human services by sections 2226,  
2233, and 5676 of the public health code, 1978 PA 368, MCL 333.2226, 333.2233, and 333.5676).  
The proposed rules will take effect immediately after filing with the Secretary of State. The proposed  
rules are published on the State of Michigan's website at www.michigan.gov/ARD and in the 12/1/2021  
issue of the Michigan Register. Copies of these proposed rules may also be obtained by mail or  
electronic mail at the following email address: MDHHS-AdminRules@michigan.gov.  
Comments on these proposed rules may be made at the hearing, by mail, or by electronic mail at the  
following addresses until 12/10/2021 at 05:00PM.
