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.

“We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Matthew H. Lovett & Son’s Funeral Home for the exceptional care and professionalism they provided during our family’s time of loss. Per my father’s wishes, we did not have a traditional funeral service, but instead held a public viewing followed by cremation. From start to finish, the staff handled every detail with compassion, respect, and dignity. They were attentive, patient, and truly understanding of our needs, making an emotionally difficult time much easier for our family. We were extremely satisfied with the services provided and felt supported every step of the way. Their kindness and professionalism did not go unnoticed, and we are deeply thankful for the care shown to both our father and our family. We would highly recommend Matthew H. Lovett & Son’s Funeral Home to anyone in need of compassionate and trustworthy funeral services.”
