i think the autopsy laws are different from state to state.  in colorado we are not allowed to charge for autopsies, but there is a autopsie cost reimbursement program for recovering some of the cost of doing them.

a morgue deiner is a histotech (usually) that assists at autopsies or sometimes does almost all the autopsy him/her self and then the pathologist comes in and observes and records the results

remember the correct spelling.)  An internet search didn't help.
