Bailey Howard Funeral Home

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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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
“My parents pre-arranged their services with the team at Bailey-Howard, and as their son, I valued their assistance and care at a difficult and celebratory time. Most recently, I worked directly with Christy, and she was outstanding. The attention to detail was spot on, and we appreciate everything they did for our family. We don't live in the area, and they made sure everything went great when we arrived. The pre-arranged services created by my parents were a blessing, and they picked the right funeral home to provide those services.”
— Dyron Howell
“We had a tremendous experience with BH funeral home. We had more people than expected, and had to move from the visitation room to the chapel. Everything was set up flawlessly for us in a timely fashion. We appreciate the caring staff at BH.”
— Leslie Courington
