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.

“A very dignified place for the burial of soldiers. I have been here multiple times for family and friends who served our country and passed.”
— Train Track Johnny
“We are so blessed to live near a National cemetery. My father recently passed away and, as a veteran, it was a privilege to see him laid to rest in such a respectful manner. The gentlemen who interacted with our family, and conducted the service, did so with extreme respect and professionalism. It was a beautiful, reverent event, and suited our dad perfectly. I cannot say enough about the admiration we feel for those who volunteer their time to provide these services, work to intern our loved ones, and maintain the property. It was obvious they genuinely care about the work they do and its importance to so many families.”
— Sarah Stockwell
“Incredible cemetery for the people who have served our country and respectful place to honor our loved ones. Beautiful and well maintained grounds. They put up thousands of flags on Veterans Day and Memorial Day. It is very humbling to just walk through. We saw deer come out at dusk and eat the flowers at the sites on several occasions.”
— Chandra Cogburn
