The OME may need to request medical records from your facility to assist in the investigation of a death for clarification of mental and physical diagnoses, treatment plans, past medical conditions, prescribed medications, and compliance of the patient with prescribed therapies. 

Utah Code Section 26-4-11 states “failure to submit reports other than reports of a county attorney, district attorney, or law enforcement agency, upon written request from the medical examiner within 10 days is a class B misdemeanor”.
