Which item is charged by a third party and not part of the Direct Cremation package?

• A. Direct Cremation package
• B. Transportation
• C. Burial permit
• D. Third Party Crematory fee

Answer: (D)

The key idea is that the cremation itself is performed by a crematory you contract with separately from the funeral home's package. A Direct Cremation package typically covers the funeral home’s basic services and the arrangement, but the actual cremation is handled by the crematory, which is a distinct third party. The fee charged by that crematory is paid to a different entity than the funeral home and is not included in the Direct Cremation package. So the item that is a third-party charge is the Third Party Crematory fee.
