For Funeral Homes

ELECTRONIC FILING

Our office now accepts death records for electronic filing. This means signed death certificates can be e-mailed (along with the request for approval form) to vitalscph@schd.org. Our office will review the certificate and accept or reject the certificate for filing within one business day. Once the certificate is accepted our office will send an e-mail with ordering instructions.
 
Other Local Health Departments in Ohio are getting on board also!  The request for approval form along with a complete list of LHDs accepting death certificates for electronic filing can be found below.
