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.

“We recently had services here for a family member, and I’m so grateful for the kindness we were shown. Losing someone is never easy, but Jannette and Britney truly made a difference for our family. Jannette was so compassionate and patient, and Britney made everything feel a little lighter during such a heavy time. They helped make a heartbreaking experience feel a little more peaceful. We’ll always appreciate everything they did for us.”

“Our family had a very positive experience with McAllen Funeral Home during a difficult time. They handled my grandfather's cremation with the utmost dignity and respect. We also held a small service at their facility, which was peaceful and exactly what we needed to honor him. I want to give a special thank you to Misty, who was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to provide the bereavement documentation I needed for my work. Her compassion and efficiency made a stressful situation much easier to navigate. I highly recommend their services to any family in need of care and professionalism.”

“During one of the most difficult times in our lives, the funeral home staff showed genuine compassion, sincerity, and professionalism. From the moment we arrived, they treated our family with kindness and respect, making sure we felt supported every step of the way. The staff was incredibly patient and understanding, taking the time to explain everything clearly without rushing us. Their sympathy felt sincere, not forced, and it truly helped ease some of the emotional burden we were carrying. They listened carefully to our wishes and handled every detail with care and dignity. Thanks to their dedication and thoughtful service, we were able to focus on honoring our loved one rather than worrying about arrangements. We are deeply grateful for their empathy, professionalism, and the comfort they provided during such a heartbreaking time. I highly recommend this funeral home to anyone in need of compassionate and respectful care.”
