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.

“This was my dad's first choice for a these services. I didn't know McCarty's at all, Dave did a great job. Extremely responsive and helpful. I highly recommend him in Sevier County and surrounding areas.”

“David was so exceptional and pure hearted when I called to ask him for his help on getting my father whom just passed away so unexpectedly at home with my mother this past week Monday. My mom was so lost and was led on a journey she shouldn’t have with another cremation place and I felt so sorry that she had to even endure that much run around just to get my father laid to rest with his cremation so when I made this heartbreaking call to Mr. David McCarty at his self owned funeral business he made it all so much easier and quicker to get all of this hard heart wrenching part of of life business we all don’t wanna take part of but it is the process of life god created. I hope everyone that come across his business uses him you’ll be greatly served and all your needs and requests will be fulfilled by Mr McCarty so please know you’ll be making a right decision with him. I just wanna say THANK YOU SO MICH DAVID for the wonderful acceptance of my phone call and help my mother be at some peace and ease knowing she will have her husband back home this Monday words can’t express enough how grateful and blessed you were to our family at this hard time we have experienced GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY THERE THAT HELP YOU OUT IN YOUR BUSINESS you all are so wonderful !!! ❤️❤️❤️💐💐😇😇😇👼👼👼 I’ve placed some pictures for you to see what my daddy looked like and of course his beautiful wife my mama Joanne and his great grandbaby Lyla Lynn 🥰”

“McCarty Funeral home is the most loving and caring funeral home you will find. When our dad passed away a few years ago David McCarty treated us like family. Our Dad wanted to have a funeral at his home church and they did an outstanding job of fulfilling his wishes. If you are looking for a funeral home who truly cares about you and your family I would highly recommend them. They also have the best prices in town. You will pay far less than other funeral homes. David is the most kind and caring person. Thanks again David from The McMahan Family❤”
