Questions to Ask When You Call
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.
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.

“Aside from grieving the loss of my brother, I wanted to write a very positive review about CA Cremations and Burial. The staff, the SERVICE and Chapel were all so amazing, very attentive and helped us in making a beautiful service for my brother. Very well priced as well. Since this was our first time planning a funeral, Briana helped us every step of the way. She is such a warm, inviting person that made this process very easy, especially since we were all grieving. And even after the funeral, she has helped us with all questions and concerns. If you’re looking for a beautiful chapel to honor your loved one’s memory and expect a high level of service, please consider CA Cremations and Burial. They have 2 locations and we chose the El Cajon one. Thank you for your services. -Maurissa”
