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.

“AfterCare Cremation in Mission Hills was a true blessing to me during the most difficult time of my life. When my husband of 45 years passed away, I was overwhelmed and heartbroken. I had heard horror stories about cremations and was very skeptical and afraid of ashes being mixed up. They patiently listened to my concerns and reassured me with kindness and professionalism. They are a reputable, family-owned business that clearly takes their responsibility very seriously. Everything was handled with dignity, respect, and compassion. What has meant even more to me is that they continue to reach out on my husband’s birthday and on the anniversary of his passing to let me know they are thinking of me. That level of care goes far beyond business. It shows genuine humanity. I am deeply grateful for their warmth, integrity, and compassion. I highly recommend AfterCare Cremation to any family going through loss.”

“AfterCare Cremation was incredibly helpful when my sister passed away somewhat unexpectedly right after this past Thanksgiving. I found them on line and from the get go every person I talked to was caring and walked me through the process. Jennifer and Kay were my main contacts and kept me updated on every step in the process of the cremation and acquiring the death certificates. They even have reached out after everything was completed to make sure I was okay. I can't say enough good things about this business and absolutely recommend them if you have a death in the family.”

Highly recommend for anyone looking for an affordable and hassle free cremation service.”
