Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

“We had a wonderful experience with Sweeney-Phillips & Holden Funeral home with my Grandma's funeral. They guided us through the entire process. They made a hard time less stressful, with their knowledge, comfort and communication. I couldn’t have asked to work with a better team of professionals. Mason went above and beyond to make sure the funeral procession went smoothly from Warrensburg to Lexington. He coordinated with multiple first responders to make it easier for the family to stay together. Thank you Mason and team for making a hard day much easier.”
