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.

“Bless these folk for taking such good care of us during this emotionally devastating time. End of life business can seem so complex and transactional but with people who are meant to help others with these moments, it can be a little less gut wrenching. I appreciate and have immense gratitude for the obvious care they took of my brother. What they are able to convey for the family is an art and a craft. They gave us the peace we needed in our moment of incredible sorrow. Bless you all.”

“Outstanding experience for the type of work. Regina was empathetic and caring from the first call and she demonstrated that honoring my father was the priority. She even emphasized that I should make sure we are comfortable with them and shop around if I wanted to. They worked with me from across the country and made everything simple so our family could focus on the deceased and grieving.”
