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 recently lost my father and it was his request to have Beggs Funeral Home take care of his final wishes. I initially spoke with Spencer who was so kind as I was stuck five states away due a snowstorm. Spencer was caring, sensitive to the situation and handled everything for me. His office manager Trudy was absolutely wonderful. She helped me not only with my dad’s final wishes but was able to direct me with all the things I needed to do after the fact. I would have been lost without her. Elizabeth reached out to me on several occasions to make sure my family was doing well and asked if they could be of any further assistance. I cannot express enough just how much I appreciate each of them and I would highly recommended Beggs Funeral Home for your family during such an emotional and difficult time.”

“I highly recommend Beggs Funeral Home. Our family has trusted Beggs with our loved ones for years. They go above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. They are more like family than just "a funeral home." They check on you to see how you're doing and ask if there’s anything they can do for you. Bottom line is they care about you and what you are going through!! Let Beggs take care of your loved ones when that time comes. You'll be so thankful you did.”
— Julie Overstreet
“Beggs was able to get my beautiful wife late in the evening when her struggle with dementia took her. Their compassionate care and coordination with another funeral home was well executed. As with my wife and previously my mother they were able to make arrangements that left me and my family very satisfied.”
— Charles Cummings
