A. The use of misleading or false advertising will constitute unprofessional conduct. The following classes of advertising shall be deemed to be misleading:
1. advertising the price of caskets exclusively, without stating that the price does not include other merchandise and services, since the natural inference of the public is that the advertised price of caskets includes the price of the service;
2. offering service at "cost" plus a percentage, when the determination of the "cost" lies within the control of the funeral director or embalmer and is not advertised and included within the General Price List of the funeral home;
§505. Examination for an Embalmer and Funeral Director
A. Applicants for an embalmer and funeral director license shall be given a written and/or oral examination on subjects defined in courses required by the American Board of Funeral Service Education and laws, rules, and regulations of the state of Louisiana, together with any such other subjects as the board may deem necessary.
§901. Requirements for an Embalmer and Funeral Director License
A. Any person desiring to engage in the practice of embalming and funeral directing in this state, except those holding a temporary license, shall serve as an intern within the state of Louisiana.
