We need your help! Recently, funeral homes have begun to refuse to pick up bodies from our morgue until the physician has signed the death certificate. This is causing a great deal of backup and congestion in the morgue at UMC.

Nursing House Supervisors are having to do a frequent physician follow-up to get physicians to sign death certificates. Some physicians do not yet have an account with the state database.

Please complete death certificates as quickly as you can. If you are not signed up with the Texas online database for certification, TexEver, then please contact your administrator to sign up.
