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.

“Beautiful people in charge. Jarrod @Janelle are so very caring. Jarrod tried to make us feel so comfortable and at ease because he knew that we hurting so terribly. He kept our cost as low as possible. I like it because he doesn't wear a black suit. He looks like one of us. Feel more comfortable, not so scarry. I trust him to care for my daughter because he is so caring. I recommend him for all of my loved ones.”

“Last year, my dad died unexpectedly. I was so relieved with the recommendation for this funeral home because of the positive reviews on Google. Janell ignored me when I arrived to discuss things about his services, walking by me several times and when it was my appointment time she didn’t introduce herself. I figured her name out from googling. She was dismissive about my questions regarding my father. I expected an empathetic and kind staff who deals with death often to be helpful...but when I tried to ask about arrangements and timelines, she uncaringly referred to the length of time my dad had been dead referring to his decomposition. This was an unnecessary response to what I had asked. I have never dealt with a death or arrangements and every question I asked to gain understanding was met with condescension. I had selected this funeral home for the reviews stating they were compassionate and caring with death but it wasn’t my experience. The only thing I can say good about their services is the beautiful casket.”
