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 the absolute best. Mr. Stewart just walked me gently through all the arrangements for my husband's funeral. He never pressured me or tried to push into a decisions. He gave me the opportunity to think about my decision and gave many opportunities to change my mind. He was always there and almost seemed like a member of the family. The funeral home was very dignified and so very respectful of the family. I would give them 100 plus percent on everything single thing they did. I will always be thankful and appreciative of the wonderful last service that provided to my husband.”
— Janet Gilliam
