I hear about hidden bank accounts that seniors or POA may have. What are they and how does one discover them?

Find Care & Housing
As POA I was able to have the bank Mom went to bring up all her accts they had with her. That included her CDs. You as a healthcare proxy can do nothing. The only way you may find out any financial info is when Mom passes. Then as a beneficiary or an Executor you can ask for an accting of the POAs spending.

My ILs had a heck of a time when her brother passed, he had accounts at banks all over our town! They looked through his mail to find statements, and even took him to many banks ( before he passed) to see if he had any. Also those "unclaimed" records that are posted yearly. Good luck!!
