By age seventy the subject is invited to begin pre-planning. The Office presents pre-planning as a kindness — to the family, who will not have to make decisions in grief; to the subject, whose preferences will be honored. The pre-plan binds the family to the Office's certified end-of-cycle providers and locks the pricing. The Office finds that subjects who pre-plan produce 38% higher Phase-VII partner-channel revenue than subjects who do not.
