Financial Assistance for Burials
The
Michigan Department of Health and Human Services offers emergency support designed to assist low-income households that are normally able to make ends meet but occasionally need help when unexpected emergency situations arise.
When the descendant's estate, mandatory copayments, etc., are not sufficient, burial payment assistance from MDHHS may be available to help pay for burial or cremation.
Funeral Planning Tips
The Federal Trade Commission has an
article with helpful information with regard to funeral planning.
