Each has its own particular methods of going about this. In some cases, for example, the medical examiner or the chief coroner's office investigates and reports on every single case. In other instances, there is some sort of dedicated oversight or review committee. In some cases, as well, there are provisions of the medical regulatory bodies that also have a role in the jurisdiction.
