Consensual Donation and Research Integrity Act of 2025
This bill requires businesses that sell whole human bodies or body parts for non-transplant purposes (like medical education or research) to register with the federal government. It mandates detailed record-keeping about donor consent, chain of custody, and medical history, along with strict labeling standards showing donor identity and safety information. The law specifically excludes medical schools, funeral homes, and organ networks from these requirements. It aims to ensure transparency, safety, and respect for donors by regulating for-profit entities handling donated remains. Violations can result in fines or loss of registration.
