Dissolution of human remains.

Summary

The bill expands Indiana’s definition of cremation to include alkaline hydrolysis, a process that dissolves bodies in water and chemicals. It directs the state board of funeral and cemetery services to adopt rules for operating alkaline hydrolysis facilities and treats the method like burial or cremation for regulatory purposes. The measure would affect funeral homes, crematories, and families who choose this alternative.
