Medical Treatment Authorization Letter
A medical treatment authorisation letter is required when somebody is needed to be operated by the medical team. This letter enables the guardian to ensure proper and prompt medical treatment for the suffering person. It is a permission letter to authorise somebody to make decisions in your absence during that critical time.
Use first paragraph of your letter to mention name and your relationship with the subject and then put the name of the person you are authorising to make all the decisions in your absence. These kind of letters are always brief and to the point so you should not drag the opening. Clearly state the jurisdictions of your authorised person like whether he is allowed to go through medical paper work or not etc.
In the second paragraph, do notify if there is any validity of this permission letter and provide the addressee your contact information.
Remind the other party to check all the attached documents and end this letter with some courteous sentences.
