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.

“Mike Lingg and the staff at Knight-Confer did an exceptional job handling the final arrangements for my father. Their thoughtful and humble approach to this emotionally difficult situation put me and my family at ease. The family visitation at the funeral home and the graveside service at Wildwood cemetary were seamless and executed without flaw. I greatly appeciated Mike's accomodation of our requests for pastoral words and playing of some of Dad's favorite music provided by the choral director and organist at Dad's home church. Mike's presentation of a folded flag to me was done so in keeping with the utmost military protocol. Thanks Mike!”

“I highly recommend Mike Lingg and Nicole Helt and the entire staff at Knight Confer. My Mom and Dads services were there in the 60s and 90s and it's as if time stood still. They were wonderful then and phenomenal now. It's an extremely hard thing to lose a spouse and they were very compassionate and helped me through the entire process. Nicole Helt was so kind and understanding and was there every step of the way. Kudos and much appreciation. Lisa Sellinger”
