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.

— Damien Heard
“Most unprofessional funeral home I've ever experienced. So glad we only had them handle my Mom's cremation, because they could barely do that. (No slight at all to Oneoata Cremation Services). The staff we dealt with in early August didn't act like they could pull off a REAL funeral. So immature and unprofessional. Yelling at each other through the building, messing up paperwork several times, (thank God I'm very precise), and couldn't even use DocuSign correctly! I would never recommend them!”
