The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6586, aims to amend the general statutes to mandate that funeral homes offer payment plans for funeral expenses. This legislative change is intended to ease the financial strain on families during periods of bereavement by ensuring that they have access to transparent and manageable payment options for funeral costs.

The bill does not specify any deletions from current law but introduces new requirements for funeral homes, emphasizing the importance of accessibility in funeral payment plans. By implementing this requirement, the bill seeks to provide families with greater financial flexibility and support during difficult times.
