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.

“Deiters has a separate building for pets and my cat passed away on Thanksgiving. I did not have a garage to store her until the next day when crematories would be back up running. Multiple other facilities in the Peoria area said “no”. The wonderful people at Deiters met me on a holiday to take my cat’s body and relieved me of that burden. Wonderful people. Thank you very much. Their facility is beautiful and dignified and your pet will receive the best treatment.”
