2003 House Bill 4125 ↩

Senate Roll Call 318: Passed

To add patient advocates to the list of those authorized to make organ donations on behalf of a deceased individual. Under current law, a person's spouse, adult child, either parent, adult sibling, guardian, or other person authorized to dispose of the body may make the donation. Patient advocates would be placed at the head of this list, and others on the list could not revoke the donation. The bill also expands and streamlines the methods by which a person can indicate they are willing to be an organ donor.
