Loritts-Neilson Funeral Home

Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

“In the funeral business you must collect your money at the signing of the contract. Otherwise you will definitely not get paid. Its a known fact throughout the profession. So the funeral director is correct in talking money before picking up the body. That's why medical professionals and lawyers collect up front. Why give the funeral home a bad rap because you can't afford to pay prior to services rendered.”
— Edward Hatch
