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.

“Immediately upon arriving in Memphis, we went straight from the airport to the funeral home, where arrangements were made for us to visit my mother in law. In the days that followed, we returned to finalize the arrangements and had the privilege of being assisted by Charian, Matthew, and Alex. Each of them was kind, patient, supportive, and incredibly thoughtful throughout this painful process. I asked Charian if it would be possible for us to visit my mother in law one more time before returning to California, and she went above and beyond to make that happen. Most importantly, my mother in law was treated with respect, kindness, and dignity, which meant everything to our family. Honoring her wishes, she will be cremated, and Charian is coordinating the arrangements for her to be delivered to us in California. Matthew went out of his way to console my husband and offered him words of comfort and strength during an incredibly difficult time. Alex was also attentive and professional, ensuring that every detail was handled smoothly and respectfully. In addition to the exceptional care we received, the pricing was very reasonable and transparent, which brought us peace of mind during such an overwhelming time. Our experience was nothing short of excellent. I highly recommend Memorial Park Funeral to anyone facing a difficult situation, especially when your highest priority is ensuring your loved one is treated with the respect and care they deserve. Thank you, Memorial Park Funeral, for your compassion and support during this challenging time.”
