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.

“My mom and dad had both preplanned their funerals, but when mom was diagnosed with cancer this summer, she wanted to make some changes. The staff were wonderful and really listened to her and what she wanted. They were patient as she took her time to decide. After she passed, they made some wonderful suggestions for things that would enhance the service, be meaningful to the family and guests, and would still be covered by the pre-paid funds. I cannot overemphasize how much they listened. Because my husband is clergy, we know and have dealt with lots of funeral homes over the years and have attended many funerals. Therefore, I consider myself someone who knows a lot about this. These are thoughtful, caring people. My dad, my siblings, and I were all very impressed and pleased with the support from start to finish.”

“David and the rest of the team at ARN were incredibly helpful, thoughtful and compassionate when our father passed. They helped us plan a service that reflected our father, even though we were unsure of specific customs. We had an opportunity to be present and grieve, while they took over most of the work. Such a wonderful place during a terrible time. We can't thank you enough.”
