Summary

Machine-generated summary

The City of Essen Health Office (as the local health authority under the North Rhine-Westphalia Cemetery and Funeral Act) seeks a framework agreement for medical services for second post-mortem examinations. These examinations are required by law before every cremation and are performed at the crematorium shortly before the cremation takes place. The examination confirms there is no suspicion of a non-natural death. In addition, a medical examination is covered before the transport of a corpse or stillbirth abroad, to establish whether there are any indications of a non-natural death. Further details are set out in the service description.
