FTC considers rules to regulate funeral homes nationwide
The Federal Trade Commission opened hearings in Chicago and across five cities on proposed rules to require itemized price lists and ban unfair or deceptive practices in the nation’s 22 000 funeral homes. The rules aim to curb misrepresentations, force disclosure of embalming costs, casket and vault details, and prohibit bait and switch tactics. If adopted, the rules would preempt state laws and mandate price information by phone and affordable cremation containers.
