New Mexico Revocation of Anatomical Gift Donation

If an individual is registered, there is legally binding permission for donation at the time of the donor's death under the UAGA, and family members do not have the right to override this decision (1). This is not only the law, as in current practice most donations proceed even over family objection (3).

Medical aspects From a medical perspective, the act of returning an organ that has once been donated (hereafter, organ restitution) is not permissible if serious safety issues arise due to returning the organ. Accumulating cases have reported on the reuse of transplanted kidneys.

Can I remove myself from the registered donors list? Yes, you can change your donor status at any time. Look for an option such as "updating your status" on your state's site. If you have a donor designation on your driver's license, removing yourself from the registry will not change that.

If you have registered as an organ donor and have changed your mind, you can ask to be removed from the list. Our research shows that a phone call to your closest geographic location is the best option. Most states prefer phone contact.
