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.

“Would not recommend. We have been leaving messages for weeks trying to get a hold of someone so we can start the process for my father in law and no one will call us back.”
— Jaynel Goss
“HIGHLY RECOMMEND. The people at Clark County Crematory are the most wonderful people who genuinely care and worked tirelessly to help accommodate our cultural funeral rites and went above and beyond to help us jump through all the hoops required for us to get the correct certificates needed for us to travel overseas with the ashes for burial in another country. From the very first phone call with the owner who took my call after hours to help me on one of the worst days of my life, to the very last call from Lexie, who stayed in close communication with me every step of the way and gave me the good news that her mother personally drove to the post office to send our certificates registered mail so I would receive them before our flight departed. And all the amazing help and kindness from the crematory staff who helped us with our funeral rites and even put the special music we wanted on during the cremation. They made a very sad, heartbreaking experience, dignified with respect, kindness, comfort and even a few miracles and laughs. This is a family owned and operated business in the very best way. It was worth driving across state lines for. I hope no one else dies soon, but if they do, I know exactly who I will recommend: Clark County Crematory. Thank you Lexie and all of your family and staff for everything you did for my mother and my family. Domo arigato gozaimashita.”

“I want to thank Heather for being so sweet and helpful with my daughter and myself when she lost her dad. She made everything less stressful and so easy to get thru. I am going to use them to preplan for myself.”
