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.

“Ordered flowers from here on a Tuesday to be delivered to a funeral home on Thursday. Informed them that the viewing was from 4-8 so the flowers needed to be there by 3:00 at the latest I arrived at the funeral home at 5:00 pm and the flowers had never been delivered. I called the florist immediately and after being on hold for 15 minutes, I was told the driver was in traffic and would be at least an hour before he could deliver - meaning the flowers would not arrive until almost 6:30. These flowers were for an employee that just lost his dad and they were from the entire company. I was mortified and embarrassed that it looked like we hadn’t sent anything to show our sympathies. I questioned the traffic issue since the florist was only 1 mile away from the funeral parlor and that’s why we choose them I told them to cancel the delivery and refund the monies After many calls of being sent to one person after another and then back to the first person - we still have not received the refund and the florist didn’t even have the decency to offer to deliver something free of charge to the deceased family . I would strongly advise you to find a different florist Even with 2 days notice, this florist couldn’t get the flowers there on time”
