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.

“This was the best experience I have ever had working with a funeral service. Jimmy Wright was the perfect combination of helpful and empathetic. I didn’t need to worry about anything; what I forgot he remembered, and what I didn’t want to do, he did for me! The day before try mother’s service, he sat with me in his office for four hours making sure that the slide show was perfect. The rates were incredibly reasonable and we were even offered a 10% discount for using the new facility they’ve acquired -Bassett Country Club. This was ingenious decision, that really took my mother’s service to the next level. We were able to offer a small buffet of finger foods for our guests in the dining area, which elevated the event to a level of class that would have made my mother proud, and that’s really what every grieving family member wants don’t they? To make the service something they would be proud of. I hope I never have to use them again but if that time comes, it’s a no-brainer. They are the BEST in town and I wouldn’t use anyone else. Definitely, the “wright” choice.”

They followed up with me several several times already and it’s been a year now this past Tuesday and I got a phone call from them again to see how I was doing. they are very kind and thoughtful people and they were wonderful. I wanna thank them again for everything they’ve done and for their kindness.”
