Revocation

A principal in any state can revoke an advance directive using any method and notifying their health care provider.[2] An agent’s authority can be revoked by written statement or any means that informs the healthcare provider of the revocation.[3]

Decrees of annulment, dissolution of marriage, and legal separation will also revoke a spouse’s authority as an agent.

Registering

Oklahoma law does not require advance directives to be registered. An optional registration system is provided on the State Department of Health website.[4]
