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.
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.

“The Hogan-Bremer-Moore team (especially Megan, Jamie, and all the directors we worked with) were exceptional to work with at such a trying time. They made my family and I feel heard, valued and cared for as we worked through all the details of honoring our Dad's life. They were endlessly kind and accommodating.”
— Shauna Krush
“I cannot put into words how well my family was cared for during the time around my sister's death. I feel like the staff members (especially Megan) went above & beyond in so many different ways throughout this process-from creating the slide show with our last-minute photo submissions, helping arrange food, distributing flowers after the service, creating beautiful "posters" with photos & meaningful quotes, assembling the song list, and more. We will forever be grateful for our experience with them.”
