Abstract
This publication discusses the role of electronic medical records in medicolegal death investigations. Medicolegal death investigation offices respond to unnatural, unexpected, and suspicious deaths that require timely, 24/7 access to comprehensive and accurate medical records. Medical history guides decisions on case jurisdiction, disposition, identification, and cause and manner of death determination. This information ultimately helps survivors, families, and communities, and guides health, safety, and justice efforts.
