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.

“I cannot thank Mr.Calvin and the Barnes funeral home for helping our family when we were in need of a funeral home we initially spoke with another funeral home however they weren't very empathetic with our family at the initial phone call our next call was with Mr Calvin and let's just say he was extremely helpful and very patient. He set up a meeting with my family and he was very empathetic. Mr.Calvin and the Barnes funeral home was great to work with if I could give them a 10+++++ I definitely would. My auntie was perfectly prepped and she looked absolutely gorgeous rest like she was sleeping Mr.Calvin. painted her nails to match her outfit and she was no heavy with makeup he really has blessed hands my auntie had a natural smile on her face. I mean I go go on and on. If you or your family are in need of a funeral home do not hesitate to contact the Barnes funeral home. They are a absolutely pleasure to work with . The Still Family and I are extremely grateful for each and everyone who assisted in making our loved one looked at her very best .”
