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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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 recently entrusted Riverside Memorial Chapels with the care of my father, and I am deeply appreciative of their exceptional service. From the very first interaction, Geoff displayed a remarkable level of professionalism and compassion that made an incredibly difficult time more manageable. Geoff and staff went above and beyond to make sure my father’s cremation service was completed in a timely manner. The respect and dignity with which they handled my father were evident and deeply reassuring, and I would highly recommend Riverside Memorial Chapels.”
