At the time of death, and after the death is pronounced, the family or medical staff should call our Donation Pager at for the donor to be picked up and delivered to UTHealth. We can utilize the donation for up to 2 or more years. There is no charge to the family or the estate for the donation to the Medical School; there is no charge for the cremation.
