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.

“During one of the most difficult moments of my life, Riverdale in Hudson provided comfort, compassion, and care beyond words. Anne and Laura were a true blessing. My cousin and I went to help dress my mom in a sari, and they treated her with the utmost respect and dignity. Every detail was handled so gently and thoughtfully — my mom looked just like herself, radiant and beautiful, exactly as I will always remember her. Special note for Indian families: it is rare to find a funeral home willing to go the extra mile to honor cultural traditions. We dressed my mom together, but on the day, her sari pleats were impeccable — a small detail, yet one that would have meant so much to her. That care and respect for tradition touched my heart deeply. In such a tender and heartbreaking time, Anne, Laura, and the entire Riverdale team gave me the gift of peace of mind. Their kindness made one of the hardest days a little lighter and turned it into a meaningful, memorable farewell. I will always be grateful.”
