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.

“Jason was simply wonderful in helping us go through this process. My brother and I were in from Dallas as our father who had passed has resided in Lakeland for many years. The costs were explained clearly and also what to expect of the process and timeframe. From the very first phone call to the follow-up emails, we received professional caring service all the way. I would highly recommend this firm. Also very inexpensive, $630.00.”
