| Subject | Gangdong-gu supports recipients of basic living fees for the mortuary | ||
|
Gangdong-gu has announced that there will be a subsidisation of fees for morgue to recipients of basic living, starting from 15 July. It has been refused and avoided by the funeral parlour, to place the deceased without any family of friends, as fees for morgue have not been subsidised due to the provision with fees for the funeral business. Therefore, Gangdong-gu, for the dignified end of the deceased of low income, has concluded business agreements with funeral parlours of Dong-Ju Hospital and Seoul Hyundai Care Hospital, established the system for the provision with fees for the morgue and funeral business and started to support them. Supporting amount is 60,000 won per day, maximum 900,000 won per 15 days, and it is also provided when the recipient of basic living is adolescent, handicapped, elderly over 75 years old and all that sort of conditions without capacity to pay for funeral business. Fees will be disbursed by Gangdong-gu after examination of documents when overall steps of funeral business are done, for instance, cremation, washing and clothing a corpse, exequy and so on, to the funeral parlour. Lee JungHoon, the chief of Gangdong-gu, has said that it is just as well that the deceased who meet their death alone will be able to be treated at least with minimum respectful treatments by these business agreements with the funeral parlours regarding the provision of fees to the recipients of basic living, and that there should not be any resident who is treated negligently, when one passes away, due to their economic status and difficulties. |
