Commonly Asked Questions
8. Will there be any expense to my family or estate for donating
my body to the Anatomical Board?
The expense which must be paid by the next-of-kin or estate of the deceased
are all funeral home expenses which include - the preliminary embalming
- transportation to the University of Florida or the University of Miami School of Medicine.
Charges for these services are determined by individual funeral homes,
crematories or mortuaries. You may wish to discuss arrangements with more
than one funeral director. The Anatomical Board will assume costs for
storage, cremation, and final disposition of the cremains.
