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.

“Kathy Cartmell and her crew did a fabulous job handling my husband's Celebration of life. It occurred 4 months after his passing but was necessary for closure. She helped discuss and plan what turned out to be a wonderul tribute to my husband. My friends and family were welcomed and handed a bookmark memorial of my husband. The dressman were present but unobtrusive for every need from adjusting the temperature to the volume of the music. They also life streamed the service so those who were unable to attend could watch from home. Job well done. Thank you.”

“Dan and his family walked us through every step as we laid my beloved Mom to rest. They assisted with the obituary, arrangements with church and the National cemetery, what we needed to do, decisions to be made ... they made a difficult time much easier to deal with. Each member of their staff was gracious and kind and patient with us. Thank you!”
