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.

“Scott was so amazing to work with. He went above and beyond for my family during one of the most difficult times of our lives! He helped us and made sure that things were affordable. He never once tried to get us to spend more money, but instead surrounded us with patience, understanding, and compassion! He allowed us the time needed to say goodbye to our mother, never rushed us! He truly cares about people, has respect for your loved one, and is looking out for the families! We have always used a different funeral home for everyone in my family, but this man changed our outlook, and as a family we are so grateful to him and his team that worked with us!”
— Kayla Ewing
