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.
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 Funeral Director ( Dustin ) and his Team provided a well coordinated, professional and respectful service. Each deciding item and options were presented with no pressure and given careful consideration based on the needs of the Family. A big Thank you for helping my family during this difficult time.”

“If you employ door openers at a funeral home, make sure they let folks in. After driving my mom yesterday to the funeral home, the guy opening doors wouldn't let my mom through. Saying intermediate family only, as my mom replied, brothers and sisters is ok yes?, he hesitated to open the door and I told him to open the door. Then hour passes by, and my uncle was sitting outside door, I bent over to hear him say he lost his inhaler, i couldn't hear him good, the same guy has his phone open, opens the door with his body weight slamming it into my elbow! I pushed the door back fast and the guy came out saying let me tell you something. Yea, I grabbed him, and shoved him into door, as his hands were coming up at me. Immediately cops were called. The rest that happened was a misunderstanding but you guys done my father's service very well. This guy should not be opening doors or servicing people if they are going to cause problems! I know funerals are sad, intense, some angry, some moody, but you have to be more gentle with folks. This could have been avoided had the guy just been courteous and gentle hearted. Good luck in the future if you keep this guy as an employee. It happened once before me, to someone else...”
