Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“I'm truly grateful for the service I received from the Cremation Society of Idaho. Losing my mother was incredibly difficult, and she had desired that her costs were covered by her out-of-state pre-need plan. While other places turned me away or quoted exorbitant fees for use of the plan, Jenaca was my superhero. She took the reins and persisted through the red tape from the contract source to ensure all items were covered, as my mother desired. I am forever indebted to the team for their compassion and dedication during my time of need.”
— Phil Cook
“Very personal staff that answered the phones each time I called. Being able to speak with people is important to me. Very courteous & professional. I priced out several crematories and they offered the best value. I would definitely recommend Cremation Society of Idaho”
— Heidi Prigge
“I worked with Melanie to handle the cremation of my mother. Melanie was compassionate and kind-hearted. She was communicative throughout the entire process and ensured that everything was clear to me at every step of the way, answering the many questions and doubts that I had. Death is a challenging thing to navigate (for the living!), and if I were faced with this situation again, I would easily return to CSI. Thank you for your help.”
