Certificate of Death Amendments

HB 113 requires Utah death certificates to include whether the deceased person was a firefighter, directly affecting funeral homes, coroners, and state vital records offices that process these forms. The bill amends Utah law to add this specific question to the "additional information" section collected during death certificate completion, while making technical updates to existing code. It does not change other requirements like Social Security number handling or diacritical mark policies. The policy change takes effect on May 7, 2025, with no new funding or major procedural changes beyond adding this data point.
