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.

“I can not say enough about Mr Johnson. Handled both my mother in February and then my father in July with upmost respect and dignity. Offered one of his own suits for my father. Would highly recommend. Thank you mr Max Johnson for all your services”

“Very rude!! Called to see about my grandfather they told me to talk to the son because he doing everything! First of all that's so not true because the son is not the only one paid you all. I hope no one ever has to go through what I went through I'm not even allowed to see my grandfather one last time before being cremated something I would have never gave a dime for if I knew he was going to be cremated”
