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.

“My husband died unexpectedly and had no life insurance. To say I was stressed wondering how I was going to come up with the money to pay for the cremation he wanted would be putting it mildly. We had no savings and any money we had was spent during the time he was in the hospital. So to say I was apprehensive about cost would be putting it mildly. But as soon as we stepped into Doan and Mills we were treated with compassion and courtesy. I had contacted the trustee prior to coming into see Gary and I had the information with me. We went over all cost associated with cremation and Gary let me know that what the trustee was able to pay would be considered payment in full. This was such a relief to myself and our girls. When I left their office I felt as though they really cared about me and my family. They even allowed the girls and I to have a quiet, private moment with my husband and that did more to help me than they will ever know. Now my last vision of Charlie isn't hooked up to all those machines. He was peaceful and could have just been asleep. I appreciate all Gary's kindness and warmth. Will definitely tell anyone about how well we were treated.”
