Okla. Stat. tit. 63, § 63-3105.3: Orders for life-sustaining treatment – Standardized

form – Noncompliant forms.

A. The Office of the Attorney General shall establish the

standardized format for a form in accordance with the provisions of

Section 4 of this act, adhering to the directions, sequence and

wording in those provisions.

B. An Oklahoma physician orders for life-sustaining treatment

shall be executed, implemented, reviewed and revoked in accordance

with the instructions on the form required by this section. At the

patient or the patient's legally authorized representative, the

attending physician or the health care professional preparing the

form or an agent of either shall give that person a copy of the

disclosure statement described in Section 3163 of Title 63 of the

Oklahoma Statutes. When a patient with a valid POLST experiences a

change in medical condition that creates a situation in which, in

reasonable medical judgment, withholding specific health care

rejected by the POLST will cause or hasten the patient's death, if

the patient is then capable of making decisions affecting health

care the attending physician shall discuss the situation and

treatment with the patient and determine whether, on the basis of

information sufficient for informed consent, the patient still

wishes the direction in the POLST to control or instead wishes to

receive the treatment.

physician orders for scope of treatment (POST), medical orders for

accordance with this section shall have no validity

after forty-five (45) days following that effective

date or after ten (10) days following the admission of

the patient to an Oklahoma medical care facility,

whichever is later; provided, that a standardized

format Oklahoma physician orders for life-sustaining

with the laws of the jurisdiction of execution shall
