April 16 is National Healthcare Decisions Day. The date was chosen based on the Benjamin Franklin quote that “[I]n this world, nothing is certain except death and taxes.” So, do your taxes each year by the 15th and review your health care wishes each year on the 16th.
 
It’s a reminder of how important it is to plan ahead and make your healthcare wishes known. Start the conversation. Whether it’s through an advance directive or talking to loved ones; your voice matters in your care.
