Voluntary Assisted Dying — Death Certification (Cross-Reference)
When a death occurs through Voluntary Assisted Dying (VAD), specific certification rules apply: the cause of death is recorded as the underlying terminal illness (NOT "VAD") on the death certificate, and additional VAD Board paperwork is required. See hospital_admin forms set for the practitioner-side VAD process; this entry covers the bereavement-side family touchpoints.
