About this file

This is a proposal form appendix for the Delaware Health and Social Services Division of Social Services solicitation for indigent burial and cremation services. The Division seeks to establish a vendor pool to provide burial and cremation services for indigent persons across Delaware's three counties: New Castle, Kent, and Sussex. The services include indigent burial, indigent cremation and burial combined, infant burial for remains over 350 grams, infant cremation and burial for remains under 350 grams, and cremation only. Vendors may bid on services in one, two, or all three counties, with pricing submitted on a per-case basis for each service type and county combination.

Pricing must be submitted as all-inclusive cost-per-case amounts, with vendors required to propose amounts for each service requested per county and provide a total cost proposal. The Division will not reimburse additional amounts for services beyond those agreed upon in writing with the Division's Program Coordinator. All bidders must comply with Title 31, Chapter 1, Section 110 of Delaware law, which establishes uniform standards for indigent burials at the lowest cost for which burial services meeting those standards can be obtained locally. The compensation paid for burial services shall be reduced by any amounts available from social security, Veterans' Administration benefits, or other insurance coverage.
