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 was very pleased with the service at Serenity Memorial Funeral Home. During a difficult time, their team was incredibly responsive, picking up my loved one quickly after my initial call. The staff was engaging, compassionate, and truly helpful throughout the entire arrangement process. I felt supported every step of the way, and they ensured that all of our family's needs were met with care and professionalism. I highly recommend their services.”

“Alot of St. Louisans go to Serenity because of their low prices. I do not like the way the bodies are done. They dont look like themselves at all. But I guess you get what you pay for 🤷🏾♀️”
