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.

“Rick and the Edder Funeral Home family went above and beyond to help our family when my Father in Law passed away. They absolutely treated him like he was one of their family members and were an essential help in our family's grieving process. I cannot say enough how much we appreciate every thing they did. They were all so professional, caring, compassionate, and funny when we needed it! As an added bonus, it is like a museum in there of Girard history and collections of military items from Girard residents. I cannot thank them enough. I cannot recommend them enough.”

“Rick did an amazing job with my grandmother! She was real sick the last two months and looked so exhausted! But he made her look like herself before she got super sick. Our family was so amazed at how wonderful she looked! Also everything was so wonderful today! Thank you so much!”
