Would seem to more likely depend upon the medical provider who might
be asked to provide the referenced treatment based upon such a document rather than whether this notarized letter might meet some generalized form of acceptance in the Commonwealth which as far as I am aware has no particular recognized nonjudicial form of conveyance for such authority.
In other words, some might accept it but others might not (in my opinion).
