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.

“They did a very nice job preparing my husband. They were very patient with me and family when we were having phone issues of transferring pics. The even helped us. Very great people to talk to and have answers answered. My family and friends always uses Thompsons for many many years.”
— Bobbie Bellah
“The pastor somehow found cause to disparage my departed loved one last Saturday during her 11 am funeral the day before Easter. . . Based on her number of documented visits to the BUILDING over the past years. Perhaps it is an appropriate time for Thompson's Funeral Home to examine the moral constitution of the pastors presiding over services? Maybe it's not his calling. Certainly Thompson's would disapprove of the insult that occurred to loved ones, not to mention the memory of the deceased? Comments made devoid of empathy. Will they take action? Will not recommend, will steer clear...not to mention have burned with sadness and anger in the days since.”
— Christy
