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.

“The service From Frasier Mason Funeral Home was awesome. Mr. Taylor and his staff picked my mother up from the home and took the time to sit and make arrangements that meet our family needs. We viewed the body the day before the funeral, she looked like she was sleeping. The staff was professional and showed compassion when dealing with us. Mr. Taylor, even checked on the family after the funeral. We were pleased with the service we received.”
