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.

“Jeff and Brooke were so kind & did not rush us...they let us take our time. They went out of their way to find someone to stitch a Peace Sign on the inside of our daughters casket which was her favorite thing. They made her look so beautiful! We are so grateful for their love & care!”
— Jolene Burchill
“Jeff and Brooke have done nothing but the best for our family. They did not initially do the services due to obligations to another funeral home. 11months post death and still today Jeff and Brooke have been nothing but the best. Finding the right headstone, the right layout of the print, re-folding the flag, and now making sure my Dad does get a military marker. My Mom and I were talking about how we wish we would have just gone with them from the very beginning. I have made it loud and clear that my kids better send me to this funeral home.”
— Karin Vomacka
