Description
|
Increases general fund support to allow the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner to increase the decedent transport rate from $100 to $250 to secure transport services that remove decedents from the scene of death. The office finds it challenging to get funeral homes and transport companies to transport decedents at the current rate, which has remained unchanged since 2001. |
