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.

“Maryann at Ruby Memorial Funeral Home handled my father’s funeral, and I cannot express how grateful our family is for her exceptional service. From the very beginning, her team was compassionate, professional, and incredibly attentive to every detail. What truly stood out was her understanding and respect for our Hindu traditions. They were knowledgeable about the rituals, patient in explaining each step, and made sure everything was carried out with authenticity and care. During such a difficult time, their support brought us comfort and peace of mind. The staff went above and beyond to honor my father’s memory, and we deeply appreciate their kindness and dedication. I would highly recommend Ruby Memorial Funeral Home to anyone seeking a thoughtful, culturally attentive, and heartfelt service.”
