Official paperwork requirements are forcing people into the funeral industry's business model and are derailing the D.I.Y. and home funeral movement.
The fix is simple: doctors ought to be doing the paperwork - it takes a mere minutes.
This simple step will:
Cut red tape
Finally allow the D.I.Y. funeral movement to flourish
Make funerals cheaper for everyone as the D.I.Y. movement starts providing the industry with serious competition
Remove much of the funeral industry's professional mystique and their ability to charge steep "professional" service fees for simple paperwork.
Help curb predatory behaviour on the part of the funeral industry.
