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
“The Dignity Team at American Heritage Funeral Home was amazing! My father was about to pass and I was forced to arrangements quickly. Melania helped me select the perfect veteran package for my father. My dad passed the next day and Vivian helped my brothers and I navigate through this difficult time. Her communication throughout the whole process was timely and caring. The day of the funeral was tough but my dad would have been so proud. He was always proud of his service to our nation and always wore his Korean Veteran cap. The horse drawn caisson, honor guard, and Patroit Guard helped us honor his service. Thanks for helping our family through this difficult time!”
— Phillip Thompson
