Coroner. 1  A coroner is elected for the job by voting, and can be anyone from an 18 year old student to a 60 year old citizen. 2  A coroner may or may not be required to have any medical qualification, since he does not delve very deeply into the cause of the death, by performing autopsies.
While many types of medical doctors are capable of performing autopsies, most states or local government laws mandate that an appointed forensic pathologist do the work. These appointees are called medical examiners and have an official position in the county medical examiner system.Not all counties use the medical examiner system. Some counties use coroners and a coroner's system. There are two major differences between medical examiners and coroners and their corresponding systems.n the event that a non-medical coroner needs an autopsy performed, he or she can have it sent to a medical examiner. In some states, the government will provide the coroner with a medical examiner for the autopsy.
