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.

“Richardson Mortuary has truly earned every one of these five stars. They handled the preparation and final services for our beloved mother with the utmost professionalism, compassion, and care. After walking through a long and difficult journey with her during her battle with Alzheimer’s, seeing her at peace—radiant and beautiful once again—was a deeply healing moment for our entire family. That final memory gave us the comfort and strength to release her back to God with joy in our hearts. We are forever grateful to the team at Richardson Mortuary for honoring our mother’s life with such dignity and grace.”
