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.

“My husband was in the Critical Care Unit for 3 weeks & the Med-Surge unit for a week. The staff there are excellent! It not only takes skill & knowledge to take care of critical patients, it's a true gift & calling. The nurses are the absolute best! They have a genuine love for what they do & for their patients. They show love & kindness for the patient's family as well. True Angels!!! Best nurses anywhere!!!”

“I would like to share a positive review of my recent experience at Claremont Regional Medical Center. From the moment I arrived, the level of service I received was exceptional. The receptionist was courteous and welcoming, setting a professional and reassuring tone for the entire visit. I arrived about 15 minutes early for my appointment, and to my surprise, they were able to take me back 10 minutes before my scheduled time. That level of efficiency was greatly appreciated—especially considering this was my first time leaving the house in two weeks following my hip replacement surgery. Each member of the medical team demonstrated both professionalism and genuine care. The nurse was attentive and made sure I was comfortable throughout the process. The X-ray technician was thorough, patient, and explained each step clearly, which helped put me at ease. When I met with Dr. Jeremy, he took the time to walk me through my X-rays in detail. This was the first time I had actually seen the images myself. His explanation of what they revealed—and why the surgery was necessary—gave me even greater confidence that Dr. Prater and I made the right decision regarding my hip replacement. I left feeling fully informed and reassured about my treatment and recovery process. Overall, I highly recommend Claremont Regional Medical Center for their efficient, professional, and compassionate service from start to finish. My experience there reflected excellence at every level of care.”

“Steven Ocasio is an exceptional nurse who goes above and beyond for his patients. I’ve never felt safer under someone’s care than I did with Steven. Aside from that, he’s a true sweetheart with excellent bedside manner. Not enough recognition is given to nurses, especially at this hospital, but from my experience he’s the best nurse I could’ve asked for. He’s truly this hospital’s gem 💎”
