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.

“Called and talked to Tim Dunn about a funeral for my daughter.I told him she did not want to be cremated he brought up 3 times it would be cheaper to have her cremated after I told him she did not want to be cremated . I then told him I wanted an open casket. He said that they probably would not be able to do that because she would be at coroners office over the weekend and she would have dark spots. He then said he would get back to me when it was convenient for him. I then called Walker funeral home on Sylvania ave. Walkers answer to all my questions was yes we can do that.So that is where we had a beautiful funeral for my daughter.”
