FLINT, Mich. (AP) - Genesee County is taking steps to expand services offered by its medical examiner’s office outside of the county.
The Flint Journal reports (https://bit.ly/1j0kzUU ) an agreement could allow Genesee County to provide forensic pathology services to Otsego County. Medical Examiner Dr. Brian Hunter says the agreement could produce a $20,000 annual revenue stream.
Hunter estimates the potential revenue from the Otsego County deal based on a proposed charge of $1,230 per autopsy.
Genesee County already provides forensic pathology services for Clinton and Newaygo counties through similar agreements.
The Genesee County Board of Commissioners is expected to vote Wednesday on the Otsego County agreement.
