What must be included in the itemized pricing list provided to consumers?

The itemized pricing list provided to consumers must include all funeral service options and their respective costs. This requirement is mandated by the Federal Trade Commission's Funeral Rule, which aims to ensure transparency and allow consumers to make informed decisions about the services they may choose for a funeral. By listing every available service along with its cost, families can compare different options and tailor choices according to their needs and budget. This comprehensive approach safeguards against hidden fees and gives consumers a clearer understanding of what they are paying for. Providing only popular services, general overviews without details, or costs for caskets alone would not fulfill the legal obligation of full disclosure, limiting the consumer's ability to adequately evaluate their options.
