Medical Death Certificate

Medical death certificate

A medical death certificate is an accounting document that registers the fact and cause of death, filled out by the doctor who treated the patient and (or) established the cause of death.

The medical death certificate is filled out by the doctor in two copies based on the data from the medical record of the deceased and the results of the autopsy (if one was performed). The certificate indicates the last name, first name, patronymic, gender, age of the deceased, date and time of death, its cause, as well as other important information.

A medical death certificate is the basis for state registration of death in the civil registry office. One copy of the certificate remains in the medical institution, the second is given to the relatives of the deceased for funeral arrangements.
