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.

“James and everyone at the funeral home were absolutely wonderful to our family during one of the hardest times of our lives. From the moment we arrived, we felt cared for and respected. The facility itself was very clean and welcoming, and it honestly did not smell like a funeral home at all, which brought a lot of comfort. They provided snacks and drinks for our family and the children, which was such a thoughtful touch and truly appreciated during such a long and emotional time. The environment was very private and peaceful, allowing us to grieve and spend time together without feeling rushed or exposed. James was compassionate, patient, and attentive, making sure everything was handled with dignity and care. We are very grateful for the kindness and professionalism shown to our family, and we will always appreciate the comfort they provided during this difficult time.”

He insured that the unpleasant business of arranging a funeral was done so in the most pleasant way possible. I’m very glad we decided to go with Legacy Chapel Funeral Home and highly recommend to anyone else who is in need of such services”
