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.

“Travis and all the staff at Chattanooga Funeral Homes do an amazing job. They are kind, compassionate and caring people. We are so grateful for the way they handled every detail of my father in laws service. They go over and above to accommodate your needs and honor your loved one who passed. We are forever grateful for their services. They did an amazing job from, planning the service, ordering flowers, putting together the slideshow and executing the services on the day of burial. They also did an outstanding job for my granddaughter’s funeral in August. We are so thankful for these people that do their job and bring tenderness, patience and love to those who are hurting. Such a wonderful service they provide!!”

“Sadly, I leave a 5 Star review for an amazing group of folks! This week my family suffered the loss of my fiance's father, Paul Joseph Holloway. As soon as we walked inside we were met by the kindest and most sincere gentleman by the name of Kevin McDowd. Immediately we felt at ease as we walked into the conference room with tear filled eyes to make arrangements for the funeral. The staff was incredibly professional on every level and graciously walked us through the entire process, explaining everything in detail. I have never given a review for a funeral home but I'm glad to have met such caring and compassionate people. It was a small service but we are eternally grateful for friends and family who came to celebrate Paul's life and his 30+ years in law enforcement here in Hamilton County!”
