The gift becomes effective immediately after the death of the donor.

(c)  The gift may be made either to a named donee, or without the
naming of a donee. If the latter, the gift may be accepted by and
utilized at the discretion of the attending physician at or following
death. If the gift is made to a named donee who is not readily avail-
able at the time and place of death, and if the gift is evidenced by a
properly executed card or other document carried on the donor's per-
son, or in his effects, the attending physician at or following death
may, in reliance upon the card or other document, accept and utilize
the gift in his discretion, as the agent of the donee. The agent pos-
sesses and may exercise all of the rights and is entitled to all of the
immunities of the donee under this Act.

(d)   The donor may designate in his will or other document of
gift the surgeon, physician, or technician to carry out the appropriate
procedures. In the event of the non-availability of such designee, or
in the absence of a designation, the donee or other person authorized
to accept the gift may employ or authorize any licensed surgeon,
licensed physician, or technician for the purpose.

(e)  A document of gift executed in another state and in accord
with the laws of that state thereunto pertaining or executed in a
territory or possession of the United States under the control and
dominion of the federal government exclusively, and in accord with
a federal law thereunto pertaining, shall be deemed valid as a docu-
ment of gift within the State of Maryland, notwithstanding that the
said document does not substantially conform to the requirements of
Section 149-I (b) of this Act.

149J. Delivery to donee.

If the gift is made to a named donee, the will or other document
or an attested true copy thereof may be delivered to him, to expedite
the appropriate procedure, immediately after death; but such de-
livery is not necessary to validity of the gift. Upon request of the
named donee or his agent on or after the donor's death, the person
in possession shall produce, for examination, the will or other docu-
ment of gift.
