Steps
Confirm you hold a valid, current state funeral director/embalmer license
Apply for EDRS user access through your state's vital records/health department, which may verify identity against DMV records
Complete any state-mandated EDRS training required before login access is granted
On first login, complete account setup including security questions, email verification, and a PIN
Enter the demographic portion of the death record and route it to the assigned medical certifier for cause-of-death sign-off
Confirm the state registrar finalizes and issues the certificate once both portions are complete
Known gotchas
There is no single national EDRS API; each state runs its own separate system, loosely coordinated by NAPHSIS
Access requires a verified professional license and mandatory training, not something available to general software developers
The workflow depends on a separate medical certifier completing their portion, which is outside the funeral director's control
