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.

“At a Shabbaton 2-3 years ago at Pearlstone center, Kavod Venichum led the weekend, with zero mental health supervision to support young Jews process death / grief cycles. Ironically, moishe house / Mem Global really to be blamed didn’t give us any coping tools, as they were granting this org to conduct workshops like experimenting with our emotions, as their was a terrible stabbing of 17+ Jews in a Shul in Jerusalem that same Shabbaton, that wasn’t addressed at all for those of us with relatives in Israel. I attempted to write a blog and pitch it to Kavod Venichum on Tahara/Shmira as a millennial, and their team seemed keen to only promote their upper staff’s voices. So much for inclusion, and not being trauma informed.”
