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.

“At a difficult time, working with Annie and the staff at National Cremation N. Ft. Myers made some aspects very easy. The facility is lovely and calm and the meeting room well appointed with visuals and samples. I really appreciated seeing all of the costs and options up front. Annie explained everything well and treated me with utmost dignity. Throughout the process of cremation and death certificates and final wishes I was advised and consulted. The interactive obituary provided was high quality and reached far away loved ones. There were absolutely no problems or issues working with the team and I appreciate the many ways they went above and beyond to provide an excellent and smooth process. Thank you, NC&B”

“Jill is amazing, I'm glad we found this place. We are truly grateful for every kind word, thank you. This place was like a light in our darkest time of need. Even picking up my dads ashes was set up so beautifully.”

“Lacey gave a clear presentation on cremation expenses, and while I had not expected to buy, I did. I had signed up for MN Cremation but not pre-paid. I may have paid $15 to get a $150 off later. However the base price seemed to have doubled. In looking around, I was surprised how similar all prices were, This is a good, large company, and I split my time between two states. Just decided to pre-pay so my death would be easier for my daughter to handle. Also went for the extra $599 for repatriation as I am out of country at least a month every year. It seemed a good rate for insurance against the high cost of shipping home a casket. Did not know that I could not be cremated first overseas. I do not buy travel insurance.”
