5 Colo. Code Regs. § 1006-1-11
Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 11, June 10, 2024
To protect the integrity of vital records and to prevent the fraudulent use of birth certificates of deceased persons, the State Registrar shall establish a program to match death certificates with the corresponding birth certificates. This will be done for all deaths occurring in Colorado within the first year of life, at a minimum. Records will be matched for Colorado residents and births occurring in Colorado to the extent possible upon receipt of appropriate records from other states where the deaths occurred.
The date of death, the state where the death occurred, and the death certificate number shall be posted to the birth certificate.
