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.

“Fantastic group of people that go above and beyond to ensure all of your needs are met all while being very reasonable on their price. They took all of the stress out of the process will dealing with my dad’s death and me living in another state. Highly recommend these folks. They even called later to check on my family and I.”

“Cremation Society of Paducah took excellent care of my cat's cremation. I would definitely recommend them to anyone. I would give 7 stars if that was an option ⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thank you for the excellent care and customer service in this delicate situation.”

“Mr. Don was phenomenal. He made an awful day slightly less awful. They worked quickly, but never once made me feel uncomfortable. He let me take my time filling out the sheet as I was arriving right after my dog had passed away. I fully recommend him. He helped me bring her in, and gave me a moment to say goodbye to her yet again after bringing her back. I could not recommend this crematorium more.”
