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.

“I can only share my own opinions and experiences, and I believe that I received 5-star service and support when working with all at Caliman Funeral Services. They were incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and responsive through out the entire arrangement process. They clearly defined roles and expectations, were always very responsive whether by phone or email, and really did everything in their power to make everything a smooth process for our family. They worked seamlessly with our church and provided every service they were contracted to do. They did an especially nice job on the presentation of our loved one and took care to figure out specifics regarding military regalia and medals; always asked and confirmed with us first on any decisions ,and overall made a difficult time for our family very pleasant and manageable. We really appreciate all of the support we received.”
