About The Chicago Area Autopsy Service

The Chicago Area Autopsy Service (CAAS) was formed in 1991 in response to helping such families resolve these issues surrounding the death of a loved one. CAAS has established relationships with funeral homes, nursing homes, hospices, and emergency rooms as a resource to let family members know about the availability of our private autopsy services. Our trained pathologists specialize in autopsy pathology and are willing to perform complete (or limited) autopsies on individuals who expire within the greater Chicago area. The autopsies are performed in the autopsy suites of Genesis Lab at MacNeal Hospital Berwyn IL. where we perform some 200 private autopsies as well as from additional area hospitals who have contracted with CAAS to perform autopsies on their hospitalized patients who have died.
