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.

“This place went above and beyond for our family during a difficult time. The compassion they showed us and the patience and understanding they gave us was top tier service. The customer service was excellent. The staff was awesome which help relieve some stress during this difficult time. Just want to thank you so much for all that you have done.”

“This firm makes everyone feel like family. Bill Cox is the most likeable and family oriented funeral director that me and my family have ever come across. He makes you feel like he is part of your family from start to after the service. I just can't say enough about Mr. Cox and his staff. I met his dad while he was visiting Bill during our funeral planning, and I can see the family compassion for families. 3 generations of funeral service. I love the Cox Family!!”

“I have asked them not to use our names in the obituary as we are estranged from the deceased. They apologized and removed our names. Three days later, our photos are in the video. I called and complained once more. They did everything WITHOUT consent and when a call was placed, they still did what they wanted. I guess anything to spare the two Jeanettes from embarassmet right?”
