MoEVR Logo

The Missouri Electronic Vital Records (MoEVR) system is required by law. MoEVR is provided by the Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services and allows professional data providers to register vital records, such as births, deaths, and fetal deaths, that occur within the State of Missouri. 

Due to the legal nature of these records, MoEVR training is strongly recommended. Please complete the training modules below before using MoEVR.

 

Missouri Electronic Vital Records MoEVR

The Missouri Electronic Vital Records (MoEVR) system is a secure, state-managed tool to legally register vital records.

Complete the Training

The Missouri Bureau of Vital Records has field representative staff who travel the state training vital record stakeholders. Field staff can also arrange for telephone/web conference training calls. If you are a vital record stakeholder (local county health agency, funeral home/director, hospital/licensed birthing center, county official, medical certifier, medical examiner/coroner, etc.) and would like to request personalized training or a private training session from the Missouri Bureau of Vital Records, call 573-751-6387, option 4.

NCHS Logo

According to the National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS), birth and death information is an important source of statistical data for identifying public health problems, monitoring progress in public health, informing the allocation of research and prevention funds, and conducting scientific research. For these reasons, complete, accurate, and standardized reporting of vital events is critical.

Therefore, before completing vital event data in Missouri, review the comprehensive training and instructional materials made available by the National Center for Health Statistics.
