The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6586, aims to amend current 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 accessible and transparent payment options are available for funeral costs.

The bill does not specify any deletions from current law but introduces new requirements for funeral homes, emphasizing the importance of providing flexible payment solutions to support families in their time of need. By implementing this measure, the bill seeks to enhance the accessibility of funeral services and alleviate the financial burden associated with them.
