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.

“Its been over almost one year and I haven't gotten my father's death certificate. This place can't seem to organize their documents. They charge for premium service but deliver way under any standard expectation. DO NOT TRUST THIS FUNERAL HOME!!”

“The entire staff was amazing, caring, and thoughtful throughout the whole experience. I was so impressed with how easily they made a very stressful and sad situation. From the first inquiry, they showed sincere compassion and continued to provide proactive support and guidance through each difficult step. My family can’t thank Stephanie enough for all of her help. Carmalita was amazing! They did a wonderful job preparing my mother for the service. I Highly recommend March Life Tribute Center.”
