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.

“My car was vandalized in Wausau with spray paint. Despite the truly upsetting situation, I had a positive encounter with Officer Stark who responded to the incident. He could sense I was shaken up and was incredibly considerate by reassuring I was safe. He was very patient with me while I worked through sharing my contact information with him. Although I no longer live in Wausau, it was reassuring to receive such professional treatment during a distressing event. Officer Stark sent me the necessary resources to file a report and answered all my questions. I mentioned to him I wanted a car wash and not only did he share a few places I could go, he also accompanied me which greatly helped ease my anxiety. Officer Stark, thank you for making a difficult situation much more bearable. It’s examples like yours that truly stand out. As a visitor to Wausau area, I will forever appreciate your professionalism and genuine care.”
