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.

“From start to finish, Ocker Funeral Homes & Monuments handled my father’s services with exceptional care, professionalism, and compassion. They assisted with everything, from funeral preparation and viewing, to coordinating the graveside service, and every detail was handled beautifully. During one of the hardest times for our family, the Zach, Bren, and the staff made the process feel manageable and respectful. They were organized, attentive, and genuinely kind, which made a world of difference. Pastor Henry Birdtail, of the Oak Grove Baptist Church, led the service, and it was heartfelt, meaningful, and exactly what my father would have wanted. Ocker also designed, cut, and engraved my father’s tombstone, and the craftsmanship is outstanding. It’s a lasting tribute, and we are deeply grateful for the care they put into creating something so meaningful. I cannot recommend Ocker Funeral Homes highly enough. Their compassion, attention to detail, and dedication to honoring loved ones truly stand out. Our family will always be thankful for the care they provided during such a difficult time.”

“The service I went to was very nice. The reason I’m leaving a review is the parking. It’s terrible. You need to do something about the parking.”
