NC Office of the Chief Medical Examiner
The North Carolina Medical
Examiner System is a network of over 600 medical
doctors throughout North Carolina who
voluntarily devote their time, energy, and
medical expertise to see that deaths of a
suspicious, unusual or unnatural nature are
adequately investigated.
This resource is maintained
by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner of
the state of North Carolina. The OCME is a
division of the NC Department of
Health and Human Services. The
OCME also functions as the Division of Forensic
Pathology of the UNC School of Medicine
Department of Pathology.
