Filed right the first time.
Certificates get rejected. Certifiers go quiet. Families wait. Valedis fixes all three — giving directors and their admin staff a cleaner workflow from the family’s first details to a record ready to file.
Not another all-in-one system to learn — it works alongside your state’s system and the tools you already use.
The hardest week shouldn’t be made harder by paperwork.
A rejected certificate means a medical affidavit, getting the physician to sign again, and mailing paperwork to the state — weeks of delay while a family waits on the one document that lets them move forward.
Chasing a certifier’s signature falls to whoever has time — usually the admin staff — and it means awkward calls, ignored voicemails, and a case that won’t close.
Re-entering details the family already gave over the phone, tracking deadlines in a spreadsheet, fielding the same questions twice — it adds up fast for a small team.
All the while, the filing clock keeps running.
How Valedis solves it
See the workflow in action.
A four-step walkthrough of a real case — from the family’s first details to a clean, signed record ready to file.
Step 1 of 4: Family fills in the secure link
An illustrative walkthrough. Sample case only — no real names or personal information.
How it works
The same three steps you just watched — in plain words.
The family fills in what they know — gently.
You send a secure link. The family enters details at their own pace, from anywhere, with no account to create. The hardest week of their life gets one less burden.
You review, and Valedis catches what would’ve bounced.
Their answers flow into your review screen, clearly marked by source. Valedis checks everything against the common reasons certificates get rejected — a name that doesn’t match, a missing field, an unsigned certification — and flags it while it’s still easy to fix.
You file clean — the first time.
Valedis tracks the deadlines and chases the certifier’s signature for you. When everything’s in order, you get a complete, correct record ready for your state’s system. No rejections. No weeks-long amendments. No chasing.
Works alongside your state’s system
You stay in charge. You still file.
You still file through your state’s Electronic Death Registration System (EDRS). Valedis makes sure what you file is complete, correct, and on time — so it goes through clean the first time.
Your state’s EDRS
Your state’s EDRS is where you file.
Valedis
Valedis prepares a complete, accurate record so filing goes through clean.
Your state’s EDRS
The EDRS needs accurate decedent details.
Valedis
Valedis collects them from the family by secure link and error-checks every field.
Your state’s EDRS
The EDRS needs the certifier’s signature on a deadline.
Valedis
Valedis tracks the deadline and follows up with the certifier so you don’t have to.
Your state’s EDRS
EDRS has built-in edits that reject submissions for missed fields and format errors.
Valedis
Valedis checks against those same field requirements at your desk — so built-in edits catch nothing when you submit.
Your state’s EDRS
A rejected submission means a medical affidavit, another physician signature, and weeks waiting on the state.
Valedis
Valedis catches the common rejection causes before the case ever reaches the state system.
Valedis doesn’t replace your state’s system — it takes the painful work off your plate so that system works the way it should.
Focused, not all-in-one.
The big platforms run the whole funeral home — case management, financials, inventory, barcode tracking. Valedis is deliberately smaller. We do a few hard things exceptionally well.
Family intake, made human
Collect the decedent’s details from the family by secure link — warm and unhurried, in their own time. Their answers flow straight into your admin’s review screen, so nothing needs to be re-entered by hand.
Paperwork, prepared and checked
Family answers become a complete record, error-checked against the common reasons certificates get rejected — caught at your desk before anything goes out, not returned by the state weeks later.
The certifier, chased for you
Valedis tracks the cause-of-death signature deadline and sends the certifier gentle, automatic reminders — so the admin staff isn’t the one making awkward calls, and the case keeps moving. You stay in control; you file.
Not another all-in-one system to learn — the tool that fixes the death-certificate headache, from the family’s first details to a clean, signed record ready to file.
Built alongside directors and their admin teams.
In most independent funeral homes, it’s the admin staff who carry the paperwork — the data entry, the follow-up calls, the deadline tracking. Valedis is built for them too. Every step has been shaped around how the job is really done: what the director needs to see, what the admin needs to do, and where the process breaks down. No bloat, no buzzwords, and no promises we can’t keep yet.
Piloting with select funeral homes across the Southeast now.
We’re onboarding a small group of independent homes to work with us directly — you get hands-on setup, a walkthrough on a real case, and a direct line to the founders. Spots are limited.
Real testimonials from pilot directors coming soon.
Common questions
A few of the things directors and their admin staff ask us most.
Does Valedis replace my state’s filing system?
No — it works alongside it. Valedis handles the part that’s painful: gathering accurate information, catching the errors that get certificates rejected, chasing certifier signatures, and preparing a clean, complete record. You still file through your state’s system; we just make sure what you file is right the first time.
How does Valedis prevent a certificate from being rejected?
Before anything is filed, Valedis checks the record against the common reasons certificates get sent back — missing or incomplete fields, names that don’t match across documents, an unsigned certification. It flags issues while you can still fix them in seconds, instead of weeks later.
What happens if a medical certifier is slow to sign?
That’s exactly what Valedis is built to take off your plate. We track the certification deadline and send the certifier gentle, automatic reminders — with escalation if time runs short — so you’re not the one making the awkward follow-up calls.
Do families need to create an account or log in?
No. You send the family a secure link. They fill in the details they know, at their own pace, on their own phone — no password, no account, nothing to install. Their answers flow straight into your review.
