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.

“From the moment we met Dr. Martin and Gabriel, we knew we were in the right hands. They were professional and knowledgeable, but what truly set them apart was how much they genuinely "cared". They didn't rush us. They listened. They understood this wasn't just another service, this was our mother, and they treated her with the dignity and love she deserved. My mom looked absolutely beautiful. Breathtakingly beautiful. If she could have seen herself, she would have been so proud. They didn't just help us bury her properly, they helped us celebrate her in style, exactly the way she would have wanted. During one of the darkest moments of our lives, they brought us peace. That's something you can't put a price on. I can't recommend Prepared Place Funeral Home enough. They'll take care of your family like their own. Thank you both for everything!”
