As I glanced at another one this morning, I was struck by the amount of personal HEALTH information that is on the death certificate. I know that in Oregon, for example, you have to request a “short form death certificate” to record is as it omits the health information. I was wondering if anyone else thinks that the approach in Washington is problematic given Federal law and just general ethics, and if anyone had an idea of what member of our State Government I might raise this with besides blindly contacting my local representative.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>Sincerely,<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>Richard L.
