New Mexico Revocation of Anatomical Gift Donation
Overview of this form

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.
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).
