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.

“We used Thomas Funeral Home this November when my dad passed. Tim and his team were excellent, they treated us with dignity and respect. Grant was a blessing to us at all time. We know our father was in the right place since the moment we first meet with Tim, words are not enough to thank all of them. We wish that we don’t need to use their service any time soon, but whenever we need them we know they will be there for us with the best service possible. We highly recommend Thomas Funeral Home to all.”

“When we lose a loved one, life changes as we all know. All the employees at Thomas Funeral Home make the sad final resting place of our loved ones so much easier to endure. Their kindness, gracious willingness to ensure the family is well taken care with actual sincere caring helps make the loss so much easier. Very caring people that are not out to make a ton of money off people that can't afford to spend it. Thank you from the Erickson family for the care and support you gave.”
