The death certificate is an important legal document. In addition to providing the decedent's family with a cause of death, it has critical administrative and epidemiologic applications. Death certificates may be required to settle decedents' estates and obtain insurance or other pensions/benefits.
Death certificates from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries often include obsolete medical terms which may be unfamiliar or unexpected, such as milk sickness (poisoning by drinking milk from cows that have eaten the white snakeroot plant), Bright's disease (kidney disease) or consumption (tuberculosis).
The cause of death should reflect your medical opinion as based on the medical record. In Part I, document the complete chain of events that best explains why this patient died. The last item is the underlying cause that began this sequence. In Part II, document other conditions that contributed to death.
ICD codes are assigned to all causes and conditions reported by the certifying physician, medical examiner or coroner on the death certificate. That information is then used to determine the underlying cause of death to report aggregate and comparable mortaility statistics.
The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) is designed to promote international comparability in the collection, processing, classification, and presentation of mortality statistics. This includes providing a format for reporting causes of death on the death certificate.
