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.

“During one of the most difficult times in my life, the team at Hillcrest handled my mother’s memorial service with such compassion, grace, and professionalism. From the very first conversation to the final moments of the service, they treated our family with kindness, patience, and genuine care. Losing my mom was incredibly painful, but they made the entire process feel manageable. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, and they went above and beyond. I will forever be grateful for the support they gave me and my family during such a heartbreaking time. If you ever find yourself needing these services, I cannot recommend them enough. Their compassion and dedication made all the difference when we needed it most.”

“My husband died on 01/12/2025 and the hospital told me, I needed to find a funeral home to receive his body. I called Hillcrest and Joe answered the phone - from that moment every single thing went well. The assurance in his voice was so comforting it gave me the strength to do what I needed to for my hubby’s final details. Joe went above and beyond to ensure that every minor detail from the program to the grooming of my hubby was carried out meticulously. He handled my family and I with such patience and care, such grace and understanding of all the emotions that we were dealing with. Thank you Joe, thank you for taking such good care of Perry’s final farewell. I am forever grateful that God directed me to you, you paid attention to every detail and made his home going very beautiful. I wish I could give you “10 stars” because you deserve way more than “5”.”
