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.

What Families Say
“The folks at Hayworth Miller were excellent. My wife’s death was quite sudden, but they were available and here within an hour. They were extremely helpful in establishing the obituary and arranging for the cremation and ultimate delivery of ashes and support for the funeral service.”
— Sanford Beard
“Compassion was 10 of 10. Basic services were affordable and within reason (compared with 40-year-old receipts from last funeral I paid for). Many services available that can be processed in a timely manner, but be forewarned - get a sampling before you actually need services because when emotions are raw, the details can be overwhelming. We did not use financing options, but they appeared available. Follow up calls and orders were dealt with promptly.”
— Michael Agresti
“Hannah was a pleasure to work with. She exceeded our expectations from the first meeting. Thank you for making a difficult time easier by your compassion and attention to detail.”
— Dana Shuman
