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.

“From the time we walked in the door, our funeral director, Dominic made the family feel at ease and comfortable during a very difficult time. Every question we asked, he had the answer. He was there for US. We have had Julie follow up with us several times to make sure we were doing OK, and offering resources if needed. I can't say enough about how well our celebration went. I would highly recommend Willwerscheid for any funeral needs you may have. They made it easy.”
