SB 1101 Connecticut Senate · 2025 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING THE FEES CHARGED FOR A MEDICAL RECORDS POSTMORTEM REPORT AND A TRUE COPY CERTIFICATION.

SB 1101 exempts family members of a deceased child from paying fees for two specific documents: a medical records postmortem report and a true copy certification of that report, both issued by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. The bill amends state statutes to remove these fees for the family members directly affected by the child's death. This change directly impacts grieving parents or relatives seeking official records after a child's passing, eliminating a financial barrier to obtaining these documents. The policy change is limited to cases involving decedent children and does not alter fees for other types of postmortem reports or certifications.
