If the attending physician or coroner is unable to complete the medical certification of cause of death or if the funeral director is unable to obtain the personal information about the deceased within the prescribed period, the funeral director shall file a death record with all available information completed. Such records shall be the authority for the subregistrar to issue a burial transit permit.
A supplemental report providing the information missing from the original record shall be filed with the state registrar as soon as is possible, but in all cases within thirty days.
The supplemental report shall be made a part of the existing death record. Such reports shall not be considered an amendment, and the death record shall not be marked "amended".
