The future of birth, marriage and death registration in the U.S.?

"January 10, 2005 (SACRAMENTO, Calif.) —
The state Department of Health Services this month
launched a trial of one of the first fully electronic death
registration systems in the nation, a system developed
by UC Davis Health System.

The California Electronic Death Registration System
will make the creation, processing and storage of death
certificates in California an electronic process, eliminating
paper death certificates."
.. . .
"The department is conducting a six-month trial of
the system in Yolo and Riverside Counties. Other
counties may voluntarily follow in July."
.. . .
"The EDRS ultimately will be placed in the public domain,
allow other states to obtain the source code, make modifications
and implement their own systems, based on the California EDRS."

Can't imagine how they'll make this system tamper-proof. Just think of
