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.

“We had contacted Mr. Dotson about two weeks before our mothers passing and spoke briefly about what needed to be done when the time came. We had a very easy transition when that time came. They helped us navigate the process quickly even with the nasty weather we had here in town. We are very thankful for their service and kindness in this time.”

“This company was phenomenal. We knew my mother didn't have much time left, so I'd contacted them before. Once she passed, they arrived quickly. They were kind and compassionate during a very difficult time. I cannot express how much I and my family appreciated their assistance.”
