Millares Martin, P., Allsop, M.J. orcid.org/0000-0002-7399-0194 and Carder, P. (2024) Looking at the future of the medical certification of cause of death (MCCD) in England and Wales. International Journal of Legal Medicine. ISSN 0937-9827
Abstract
Internationally, the quality of death certification is poor although there are multiple efforts underway to improve the process. In England, a new medical certification system has been proposed to improve the quality of data. We surveyed general practitioners (n = 95) across the West Yorkshire area of England to appraise their views regarding whether further possible changes to the death certification system could promote their quality.
