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.

“It worked very well. But, the camera was too far away. The camera could have been closer to the presenters and the slide show could have been closer to the camera so we could have seen that. But, over all it was very good. Thank you”
— Sherry Mills
“My husband and I were honored to be able to attend this service for our Beloved Dominic Perez. The experience was like we were right there with the Family. We have never attended anything like this before! It was very powerful! Profound experience that will never be forgotten.”
— Melissa Ann Roberson (Missy)

— Judith Kay Nelson
