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.

“My family has had pleasure of working with them for many years and some difficult situations for our family The last funeral was for my husband who died 2 months after our marriage They, my son and my sister helped to work thru the situation of no insurance and planning a funeral with a family we did not know They helped to find a wonderful pianist and a bagpiper to have at the cemetary. With them, I had no worries about the formal parts of the funeral.”

“During the worst time of a family's life, in the midst of COVID, they took care of everything. We lost our baby niece to God and it is an experience you never want to go through. Everyone feels helpless. A baby is gone. The funeral home did everything to take the burden off the family - they also were very accommodating with having an organization pay the bill (out of line with their payment date policy.) Thank you for all you did for us.”
