Beginning July 1, 2025, procurement groups must look for people with legal priority to make donation decisions and quickly share information about any other gifts, changes, or revocations. If a deceased donor is a minor, the group must try to find the parents and give them a chance to revoke or change the gift (or a refusal), unless the minor is known to be emancipated. The person or group who receives a donated body or part has priority, may accept or refuse, and must arrange removal of a part before burial or cremation without unnecessary harm. If a part is donated for transplant or therapy and is suitable, the group must also ask the authorized person about donating other parts for research or teaching when there is no clear refusal.
Beginning July 1, 2025, when a hospital refers someone near death, the procurement group must search local donor registries for a recorded gift. The group may run reasonable medical exams to check if a body or part is suitable, and the recipient of a part may also do reasonable checks after death. During these exams, measures needed for the exam are not stopped unless the team knows the person said otherwise. Exams can include a review of all medical and dental records unless another law blocks access. These steps help honor donor intent and protect transplant safety.
Beginning July 1, 2025, the doctor who cared for the person at death or set the time of death cannot take part in removing or transplanting parts from that person. Only a physician or technician who is qualified to remove the specific donated part may do so. This protects ethics and safety in the donation process.
Beginning July 1, 2025, a procurement group may move a donor’s body or part within Nevada when medical equipment is needed to keep it suitable. A county coroner may require the group to give notice and can set how that notice is given. This improves logistics while keeping local oversight.
