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.

“We're in the middle of a pandemic so I was very skeptical of this funeral service. Upon speaking to Ed his conversation completely changed my mind. He is a Christian with lots of faith. He was very open, sympathetic and listened to my requests and concerns. I was impressed with the outstanding customer service. We had a few challenges with getting information from the VA to complete my mother's burial; but Ed and his team didn't give up until they received the information. I would highly recommend Citizens Funeral Services. Once you've gotten burned buy the rest try the best Citizens. Tell ED I sent you. GOD Bless us all. Much Love!”
