Other matters of interest : The Payment of the Funeral Account
printer friendly page
The person responsible for the funeral account is the one who signs the authorization for the funeral to be conducted.
The Payment Options are as Follows:
- Option 1: Payment in full prior to Cremation/Burial proceeding (Cash, Direct, Cheque or Credit Card)
- Option 2: Submission of the account to the deceased estate (conditions apply). As there are immediate costs incurred such as the crematorium fees, doctor's fees, etc., it is required that a deposit equal to the disbursements be paid prior to cremation/burial.
- Option 3: Most insurance underwriters require individual families to submit their own claim forms. Oakleigh will help wherever possible. There is a misconception in the public sector that if you submit your policy book to an alternative funeral home who has not issued the policy, you will not be covered. We at Oakleigh Funeral Home have extensive knowledge regarding funeral policies. We are available 24hrs a day to answer any questions you may have.
