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 would like to thank and commend Thomas J. Cohen and his staff for their professionalism and prompt response after our mother’s death. The two young men who responded to our home were extremely caring and supportive in our time of grief. One of the young men covered the remains of our mother with an American flag makeshift blanket. They respectfully escorted the remains of our mother outside. They provided this special and honorable gesture due to our father’s 30 year tenure in the Navy. We highly recommend Cremations Of Greater Tampa Bay. They go above and beyond in providing a personal service during a time of need and grief.”

“I want to start off by saying I am beyond thankful for TJ and his staff. They’ve not only always shown immense professionalism but also kindness. As a hospice nurse I’m familiar with a few funeral homes in the area TJ is the only one who will always answer his phone. 2am TJ picks up and is always kind and professional. His staff are great and welcoming. I’ve never heard one complaint from them either. TJ is so good at what he does. He treats everyone with respect and dignity and that is very evident.”
