Permits local health officials to request copies of reports and records relating to a death.
The bill allows local health officials to request copies of reports and records related to a death, including autopsy and toxicology reports. This applies when the death occurs within the local health district or if the decedent was a resident of the district when they sustained a physical injury or toxicological exposure. The coroner, coroner's physician, or medical examiner must provide these reports within three business days of completion. The local health officer must maintain a log of all requests made outside their local health district.
