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.

“Heather is very informative, polite, helpful and provided great customer service throughout the entire process of getting my father cremated. She also made sure to protect his rights and ensured my siblings and I had and received everything we needed being that we live in a different state. I was very nervous and scared to trust during this transition. I am very grateful and appreciative of Heather and the team for teaching me something new.”
