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.

“This is the best funeral home hands down in all of Goshen and Elkhart. They are so helpful and thoughtful during the whole process. Sadly we have needed to have several funerals here for our family over the years and each time they go above and beyond to make sure your loved ones given the best send off. It doesn’t seem transactional like many other places you can tell they absolutely care. Would recommend them to anyone!”
