All Clark County deaths are required to be reported to and receive authorization from the Clark County Medical Examiner’s Office prior to releasing the body for disposition, regardless of where the decedent lived or where disposition is to occur. The disposition authorization process ensures the cause and manner of death identified on every death certificate are reviewed and verified.
Funeral homes need to create an account with the Medical Examiner's Office for monthly billing of disposition authorizations. Please complete and submit the form below to create an account. This application only needs to be completed once per funeral home.
