Mississippi Revocation of Anatomical Gift Donation
Overview of this form
The Revocation of Anatomical Gift Donation form is a legal document that allows an individual to revoke a previously made anatomical gift designation. This form is essential when a person decides not to donate certain organs or body parts at the time of their death, overriding any earlier decisions made regarding anatomical donations.
