Louisiana Revocation of Anatomical Gift Donation
Overview of this form
The Revocation of Anatomical Gift Donation form is a legal document that allows an individual to revoke their previous decision to donate body parts or organs upon death. This form differs from the Anatomical Gift Donation form as it specifically communicates the donor's change of heart regarding their donation preference. Executing this revocation ensures that prior directives regarding anatomical gifts are formally nullified, providing peace of mind to the donor and their loved ones.

- Identification of the donor and donee (recipient of the anatomical gift).
- Statement affirming the revocation of the previous anatomical gift donation.
- Signature of the donor to validate the revocation.
- Requirement for witnessing the document by at least two adults, including one disinterested witness.
- Date of the revocation to track when the decision was made.

This form should be used when an individual decides to withdraw their consent for anatomical donation originally expressed through an anatomical gift document. It is ideal for those who have changed their minds due to personal, medical, or ethical reasons and wish to ensure their current wishes are respected upon their passing.
Who should use this form
This form is intended for:
- Individuals who previously executed an Anatomical Gift Donation and now wish to revoke it.
- Persons seeking to ensure their final wishes regarding organ and body part donation are accurately reflected.
- Family members or representatives acting on behalf of someone who can no longer express their wishes.
Steps to complete this form
