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 funeral home will not release any of my death certificates and will not give the billing paperwork. They released information to people who were not the next of kin. I expected a level of professionalism and compassion that was sincerely lacking. They are giving me the run around complete utter in abiding the law. They cremated my children and released there bodies to a non family member. I will receive justice for there wrongful doings.”

“We have used this funeral home for my father and for our oldest son. Tim and his staff were extremely professional, compassionate and accommodating. The services provided were exactly as we requested and the costs were very reasonable. I would recommend Tim Eberhardt and his funeral home to anyone.”
— Carol Chillik
“Outstanding ! Tim is awesome! He was very helpful through a very tough time. His facility was well kept and his availability was above and beyond... He is first class individual and the way he handles his business is a reflection of that. We couldn't have been treated any better. Very good rates, also.”
