Funeral aid program allows death certificates to be altered for those who ‘may have’ died of COVID

Relatives of individuals who died in the “early days” of the coronavirus pandemic will be able to seek amended death certificates that show COVID-19 as a contributing cause of death in order to receive reimbursement for funeral costs under a new FEMA program, according to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

“Your loved one should have COVID on their death certificate, anywhere listed either as their primary or contributing cause of death,” said Ocasio-Cortez, a New York Democrat, on Monday during a news conference with Schumer. “In those early days, we know that so many people didn’t know what was COVID and what wasn’t.

“You can go back to the institution that issued the death certificate, the hospital, the physician, etcetera, and you can have your death certificate edited in retrospect knowing what we know now about COVID. So if your loved one’s death certificate doesn’t have COVID listed, you can have it put in.”
