We Want Your Feedback on FTC Review Items


In the last two issues of Inside Edition (delivered Friday, Feb. 7 and Monday, Feb. 10) we provided you with the information that the Federal Trade Commission will soon announce that the agency plans to reopen the Funeral Rule for public review and comments. The articles outlined the 22 items for review. More information will be sent to you about the Rule Review and public comment period, but in the meantime, MFDA is seeking your thoughts and feedback on the issues to help us shape our response and strategy to respond to this important announcement.

The Funeral Rule review is a multi-step process, and changes would not be made quickly or without public input. The MFDA Board of Directors has begun a preliminary discussion about the FTC Rule Review and this item is also part of the agenda for the upcoming Northeast Funeral Service Partnership meeting.

You should email your feedback and thoughts to president@massfda.org or mnolan@massfda.org. Please put FTC Review in the subject line.
