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.

“The Cremation society was very helpful in helping us plan and follow through with making the arrangements for our daughter’s services. From my first contact to picking up her ashes and even afterwards they contacted us to see how we were doing, giving us encouragement and compassion for what we were experiencing. I would all heartily recommend seeking them out to help with planning and following through. The staff was helpful and very compassionate during this time of grieving. Thank you and God Bless You.”

“When my husband died somewhat unexpectedly I was so scared and confused. Fortunately I remembered he wanted to use The Cremation Society of NH. I called them and they were so kind and helpful! They handled every thing with compassion and care. Charlotta and Elizabeth helped walk me through everything and did the death certificates and notification to SS. Being a veteran I’d chosen an urn with an Army plaque on it. I would highly recommend them to anyone, I gave his sister their information as well.”
