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.

“This group of people has been nothing short of outstanding. Kind, patient, and compassionate. I've used their "services" in my life more than once and each time was just wonderful in a time when our lives are upside down. They go the extra mile and then some. They take care of things when we're too broken to think or sort things out. Thank you everyone that has been serving our family.”

“I highly recommend Hitesman-Holdship to take care of all your end of life needs. They recently helped my family bring a family member from Florida. They literally dealt with everything, from the morgue release to cremation and transport. We had no worries once we made the call. They have handled many of our family members through the years. They continue to check on myself and my brother. Thank y'all so much!!”

“Hitesman-Holdship Funeral Home is an amazing place to honor your loved one and all of their memories before they are laid to rest. We’ve had 3 family funerals with Hitesman-Holdship and all have been beautiful representations of our family members. All the staff at Hitesman-Holdship have been helpful and respectful and made this hard process easy. All 3 funerals that were held there also had ceremonies downstate and Hitesman-Holdship coordinated everything and made the process of having funerals in two different cities hours away seamless. They put so much love, care and respect into our loved ones displays, picture boards and slideshows. We can’t recommend Hitesman-Holdship enough and we thank them for all of the comfort, care and help they provide!”
