A private autopsy by an outside expert can cost between $3,000 and $5,000. In some cases, there may be an additional charge for the transportation of the body to and from the autopsy facility.
Contact the Medical Examiner or Coroner: Start by docHubing out to the local medical examiners office. They will inform you if an autopsy is already required or guide you on how to proceed. 2. Obtain Family Consent: For voluntary autopsies, written consent from the next of kin is typically required.
In public record states, journalists can often access autopsy reports without restriction, though access to graphic content may be limited.
An autopsy report is an investigative record. It can only be released to the next-of-kin or an insurance company who has a claim arising from the death per IC 36-2-14-18. 5.
You must be the legal next-of-kin in order to obtain an autopsy report. The final report is available at no charge to the legal next-of-kin (if record is older than 5 years, a pre-payment of $150.00 is required).
