HF 4303 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Fees recoverable by a coroner or medical examiner modified.

This bill allows Minnesota coroners and medical examiners to charge fees for specific services like cremation approval, report duplication, and administrative tasks to cover their reasonable expenses, with approval required from the county board. It also authorizes these officials to charge fees when individuals, facilities, or organizations refuse to act as medical certifiers and complete death records, covering costs for medical record reviews and related administrative work. The changes directly affect coroners, medical examiners, and the public or entities involved in death certification processes in Minnesota.
