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.

“The absolute worst place in stark county do not take your family members here. Let’s all come together and shut this place down. So unprofessional and unaware of what’s going on there. My poor sister was there 12 days and every time we called. Different story or had no idea what or where she was or when things were being done. (Heather) so called supervisor. Please, this lady is the worst I’ve ever seen and so rude that it’s ridiculous. She lied to us so many times. I wouldn’t take my pet turtle there to be cremated. Let alone a family member. Is there a way on here that I can take half of the star back? lol”

“The experience I had with my Father's funeral years ago was satisfactory, but upon reading the ratings and comments from people lately, I will have my family take me to the John Arnold funeral home. I want my family ( and my remains) to be treated with respect. It doesn't sound like Reed is providing this basic human decency to their clients any more. So SAD !”
