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.

“Funerals are hard no matter what, but David walked me through everything. The compassion he has for the person that passed and for the family is amazing. I felt our family really got to say goodbye in a comfortable home like setting, it was beautiful and personal. He treated our loved one with such care, that he looked amazing, as if he were only sleeping. He has an amazing gift to comfort people in this hard time. He went above and beyond, I am incredibly thankful.”

“I've unfortunately been to several funerals in recent weeks. Although the building isn't new and everything absolutely perfect. If you want an intimate funeral with the most amazing staff at an affordable price. Barnett & Lewis Funeral home is your place. From start to finish they made the entire process smooth and super easy. David was the most caring person I've ever met. My grandmother suffers from dementia and is almost completely deaf. David took the time to explain everything to her several times. Due to her dementia she had forgotten her husband's death several times. David took the time, every time, to sit her down and talk with her about everything that was happening and what was going to happen. I've never seen such care and understanding. While visiting the other couple places in town, they seemed to have a corporate feel to them, and we were just another job. Barnett & Lewis went above and beyond at every turn. And the amazing thing was Grandpa truly looked amazing. He could have just been asleep. He looked 10 years younger and the entire family and all who visited were stunned on how good he looked. David Lewis and staff. I just want to extend our heartfelt thanks to everything you did for my family. You really do understand what being a family run business is all about, and what can be achieved with hard work. I hope you guys have many many more years in business. And please, if your needing their services, don't hesitate to call. Trust me, you will not regret your decision.”
