Preferred Provider

A preferred provider in the funeral home industry is a funeral home that has been specifically chosen by a particular insurance company to provide funeral services to policyholders of that insurance company. In some cases, a funeral home may be a preferred provider for multiple insurance companies.

The term "preferred provider" is often used to describe a funeral home that has agreed to accept prearranged funeral contracts from a specific insurance company, or group of insurance companies, at a pre-negotiated price. This means that policyholders of the insurance company can purchase funeral services from the preferred provider at a lower cost than if they were to purchase the same services from a funeral home that is not a preferred provider.

It's important to note that the term "preferred provider" may have a different meaning in different context, but in context of funeral home, it's a funeral home that has agreed to accept prearranged funeral contracts from a specific insurance company or group of insurance companies, at a pre-negotiated price.
