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 funeral home was recommended to my family as I was in a lot of grief not really knowing where to take my loved one. I looked at the reviews after settling on them but I was NOT disappointed; from our first meeting to the last, when my loved one was laid to rest, my experience had been great. I would certainly return in the hopefully very…very..distant future, but if you have a loved one and looking for quality care, you will be in good hands at Vaughn Greene!!”

“Had worked with Patricia more than anyone there. Was understanding at first, until it just seemed like a facade and just all about money. Was told that I would be reimbursed on the day of my mother's funeral due to it being extremely cold in the room, still waiting on that and have been ignored pretty much. Never met someone at a funeral home that's so two faced and childish, as it took a lot in me not to go off. A true professional doesn't keep it about money in almost every sentence. Vaughn Greene is a sad excuse for a funeral home. Couldn't even nor be bothered to look for my mother's jewelry and ID, very unprofessional and I'm at the point of taking this issue higher.”

“Went for my neighbor's visitation, everything was absolutely perfect. Thank you for taking care of the family.”
