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.

“Look no further than Affordable Cremations. Leigh was as friendly and compassionate as anyone could have been. She inquired as to my wife’s illnesses before her passing and very clearly and accurately “read the room” as to what my daughter and I had in mind. There was no pressure at all to upsell, and we got exactly the products and services we wanted at a very reasonable cost. Further, Michael and Wesley, the gentlemen who came to our home to transport my wife, could not have been more caring or sincere. At a time that could have been super stressful, Affordable Cremations made it very easy and stress-free. Highly recommend.”
