Can the autopsy be performed locally?
Whenever possible, the Center brings a pathologist to the autopsy location in order to make the process as easy and quick as possible. However, the Center occasionally has to use an out-of-town provider. The Center will make all of the transportation arrangements and cover costs if they are necessary, and works to complete the entire process as soon as possible. The Center will keep you posted if delays are expected so that you can adjust your plans accordingly.
