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.
“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.

“I never thought I would leave a review for a funeral home, yet here I am. I can't express enough gratitude to the staff at the Laemmrich Chapel - Wichmann Funeral Home. Amanda and Linda handled my Mom's funeral with compassion and professionalism. They were patient with me every step of the way. The service was exactly what we planned and they never made me feel overwhelmed. They really did a nice job - Not only with the service, but afterwards too. I received a copy of all messages that were submitted online after the funeral. Plus, I was invited to a holiday service for anyone who recently lost a loved one I really appreciate this since the holidays are so difficult this year. I also received a hand-written holiday card. They really do go above and beyond and I couldn't recommend them enough!”
