New Medical Certificate of Cause of Death for statutory medical examiner system
Ministers previously announced that the statutory medical examiner system will commence from April 2024. The NHS Business Services Authority (NHSBSA) and the Department of Health and Social Care are developing a digital Medical Certificate of Cause of Death (MCCD) for England and Wales. Anyone involved completing or handling MCCDs in any capacity, can take part in the research and be involved in shaping the design of the future digital MCCD. As many people as possible are needed to take part to build an effective and inclusive digital service.
The research sessions will be convenient to staff and NHSBSA will make sure they fit around colleagues’ availability. To participate, please complete the survey and provide your contact details. Please email UserResearch.DCR@nhsbsa.nhs.uk for more information.
