You're not expected to know this. These questions help you compare and avoid surprises.
“Can I see your General Price List?”
Federal law (FTC Funeral Rule) requires them to give you itemized pricing. You have every right to ask.
“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
This means they bill the insurance company directly. You don't pay thousands upfront and wait to be reimbursed.
“What's included vs. what's extra?”
Packages may not include everything. Ask about the casket, embalming, transportation, facility fees, and death certificate copies.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
Know Your Rights
The FTC Funeral Rule protects you. Every funeral home must provide an itemized General Price List if you ask — in person or over the phone. You are never required to buy a package and can choose services individually. You also have the right to use a casket purchased elsewhere.

“My mother-in-law didn't want a funeral, only a party, and so the only service we used was for cremation. Everything about our experience was marked by humanity. The (surprisingly affordable) fees were explained to us patiently and in detail, no one tried to upsell us, the folks who picked up her body after her death were professional and quick, and Mr. Parker was kind and generous with his time, including offering local recommendations when he learned we'd just moved to town in December. We were grateful for the experience.”

“As my grandfather was transitioning Mr. Parker provided my mother with support and guided her through the entire process. Services were absolutely beautiful, and ran smoothly. It is nothing like having peace in knowing you’re in good hands.”

“Today was my father’s funeral service. It was amazing because of the professionalism of Community Funeral Home Service . I had been sick and was trying to plan a service and was unsure how things would work out but God had a Ram in the bush Mr. AP Parker and his staff who took care of everything. I am truly thankful and grateful. Sincerely, Wendy Harrison”
