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.

“ALL of the staff and recommended service providers from Heritage Memorial Funeral Home had the upmost respect and consideration for the passing and service of our family member. Our initial call with Quincy was very helpful, and our in person meeting with him helped to understand our options, pricing and get any questions answered that we had as well as ones we didn't know we had. After getting the process started with Quincy, we had Cassandra take over to handle the details, paperwork, preparation and execution of the service for our family member. She was responsive to our calls, even texted to ensure that we had received voicemails if we were unable to respond immediately. She also helped us fill out paperwork needed for insurance purposes, and guided us on the next steps after a wonderfully executed service. Gabe who was there to assist on the day of the service and the deacon that came to deliver the service were all wonderful. They made such a difficult a little easier knowing that there was a place and people that cared about us and our situation given the circumstances. Thank you Heritage Memorial Funeral Home for shining some light for us in a dark moment. Sincerely, The Torres Family”
