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.
“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.

What Families Say
“Carl and Michaela were extremely easy to work with! Would definitely highly recommend Michaud to anyone that asked. They showed amazing compassion and were extremely patient with me thru the entire process. I was extremely happy with how my husband looked at the viewing. He was in really rough shape but they did an amazing job on him.”
— Kristen Appolo
“My grandparents had an easy time making pre-arrangements with the helpful and compassionate funeral director”
— Colin Brinkley
“Have used Michaud Funeral Home twice now (2018 & 2023) and highly recommend them. Both were simple cremations- no services or burials. Carl and his staff are very helpful, sympathetic, and easy to work with. Prices are affordable. We never felt they would try to upsell us and they answered all of our questions with a sympathetic ear. They handled pick up from the hospital and transportation to the funeral home and crematory and urn options. Thank you Carl & Makayla for your help.”
