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.

“Leeward funeral home provides great, compassionate service. They did an amazing job for my Auntie. I couldn't recommend them any higher. Superb, thank you Leeward Funeral Home for everything.”
— Ikaika Nakoa
“I was unhappy with the service because they gave me misinformation about the status of my mom's body, and when they mailed her ashes, they told me they would call me with the tracking number. Not only were they two weeks late in sending the ashes they didn't tell me the tracking number, so the day they arrived, I was not prepared for them.”
