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.

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Monaghan Funeral Home and the care they provided to me and my family during the most devastating time of our lives—the loss of my husband. He was young, and we had nothing pre-planned, which made everything feel overwhelming. From the very beginning, they met us with nothing but compassion, patience, and guidance, walking us through every step of the process with kindness and grace. Our funeral director, Haley, deserves special recognition. She was with me from the very first moments, coming to my home the night my husband passed away, and remained a steady, comforting presence through the entire funeral process and even afterward. Her care, empathy, and support meant more to me than I can put into words. She made an unbearable situation feel just a little less heavy, and I will always be grateful for her. Every single person I interacted with at Monaghan was incredible—professional, compassionate, and genuinely caring. You never feel rushed or like “just another family.” They truly take the time to support you when you need it most. This was actually my second experience with Monaghan Funeral Home. Eight years ago, they helped us plan the funeral for the sudden passing of my father-in-law, and they were just as amazing then as they are now. That consistency over the years speaks volumes about who they are and how they care for families. I highly, highly recommend Monaghan Funeral Home. In moments of profound loss, having people like this by your side makes all the difference. — Stephanie”
