Medical examiners play a vital role in ensuring that the deceased are treated with dignity, accuracy, and respect. Beyond determining cause of death, examiners often coordinate the critical step of releasing individuals to funeral homes for their final journey. But arranging transport can sometimes be a challenge — multiple phone calls, unclear timelines, and uncertainty about who is responsible for what.
With technology-driven platforms like SolemnWay, medical examiners can simplify this process, creating clarity, accountability, and efficiency in every transfer.
The Importance of Smooth Transport for Medical Examiners
For medical examiners, accurate handling and professional coordination aren’t just preferences — they are requirements. Families, funeral homes, and legal systems rely on examiners to uphold the highest standards of care.
Poorly managed transport can result in:
- Delays that affect funeral scheduling and family arrangements
- Confusion over chain-of-custody documentation
- Extra administrative work for examiners and their staff
By adopting a structured transport system, medical examiners can maintain professionalism while reducing the stress of logistics.
How the Pickup Process Works with SolemnWay
Step 1: Submit Transport Request

Step 2: Transporter Acceptance
The assigned transporter accepts the job, ensuring there’s no ambiguity about who is handling the case.
Step 3: GPS Tracking for Transparency
Medical examiners can monitor the journey in real time, improving accountability and chain-of-custody clarity.
Step 4: Confirmation of Completion
Once the transfer is complete, all involved parties receive instant confirmation.

Technology with a Human Purpose
While the platform is digital, its purpose is deeply human. By removing delays and miscommunications, SolemnWay ensures that deceased individuals are transported respectfully, on time, and with full accountability.
For medical examiners, this means more time to focus on the critical aspects of their role — accuracy, reporting, and supporting families through difficult circumstances — while trusting that the transport process will be handled with the professionalism it deserves.
