Anatomical gift designation
Designate organ or body donation. No charge.
What this document does
An anatomical gift designation under the Kentucky Uniform Anatomical Gift Act (KRS 311.1911–311.1959) lets you make a written gift of organs or tissues — for transplantation, therapy, research, or anatomical study — that takes effect at your death.
The most common path is the donor designation on your driver's license. A standalone anatomical gift document is useful when you want to specify the purpose (e.g., body donation to a medical school) or the recipient class.
What's in your draft
You specify the gift (organs, tissues, body), the purpose (transplantation, therapy, research, education, or any combination), and any specific intended recipient if applicable.
Per KRS 311.1917, the manner of making an anatomical gift before the donor's death includes signing a record (often witnessed) or making the gift in another manner authorized by the statute. KRS 311.1915 sets out who may make the gift; KRS 311.1919 sets out how to amend or revoke it.
Why this is free
