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.

“Casey Funeral Home handled my brother's arrangements with care and dignity. Since he passed away in Florida, I was dealing with two Funeral Homes. Farrell, to my relief, kept me updated on his arrival in New York and let me know when my brother was safely in their care. Nathalie Ubaldegaray helped me with the planning and addressed all of my concerns promptly and respectfully. She was very compassionate and made a difficult time easier to get through. I would recommend Casey Funeral Home to anyone who wants things done with attention to detail and professionalism.”
— Maryann Battaglia
“From the preplanning with Kristen to the planning of the funeral and its execution by Farrell everything was handled professionally and with empathy. The entire staff could not have been better and the service stellar. They made this whole heart wrenching process easy, especially since I lost my dear wife Sandy so sudden. I have my own pre plan and am very pleased that it all went perfectly. Kudos to Casey and staff!”
— Christopher Dowling
“Farrell and his team were very sincere and professional. He was attentive to my family's needs and made us feel comfortable during our tragic loss.”
— Matthew Bilotti
