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.

“I visited recently to proactively assist a friend to set up prepaid funeral arrangements for a loved family member. This family run business starts and ends business with nothing less than sincere compassion. Tristan makes it clear that he works for the customer, and explained several options and every point in detail. It is best to not wait until an emergency or unexpected situation occurs- where grief impacts the ability to make decisions that could be defined in advance. It’s a difficult initial meeting, but you leave relieved knowing that you have done your best to extend care for those you love during a time that you may not be here later to do so. Hands-down- an incredible settling experience.”
