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.

“I am very disappointed in my aunts services. This funeral home really did a disservice to the family and friends. They did not allow a viewing at the end of the service. This was not a closed casket service. Why did this happen??? I will never use this funeral home. The rating that i give is way belowa one star. This family deserves a face to face apology and a discount due to their negligent services.”

“If I could give more than 5 stars I would. This team took time out of their busy service schedule to help me and my family in need. We were in town having a memorial for my mother and had a service emergency. Emily responded timely and kindly. They treated us like family, when they didn't even have to return our call. I am inspired and appreciative of their professionalism, kindness, and service. They are specialized in sharing comfort and peace and I trust Mr. Smith and his team with the care of myself and my family.”
— Alisa Lollar-Flores
“They did horrible. My uncle didn't even look like himself. He was a completely different skin tone and all the make up was just caked on. It looked like they didnt even care! I've been to many funerals in my life time and this one was the worst. They need to learn how to do the make up or sell the damn place. Many of my family members were unsatisfied. If I could give this place 0 stars I would. Start caring or give up the place to people who actually care for the dead and the families.”
