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 was fortunate to get to work with Luke. He was very knowledgeable and patient with me during our phone call. He explained everything about all my options and walked me through the whole process and had very good answers to my questions of the whole process. He made something that can be difficult to discuss go very smoothly and comfortably. I can highly recommend Luke and Refuge to Veterans looking to make plans to ease the stress and confusion on our families when it’s our turn to take the journey.”
