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.

“Services at Beth El were disrupted before ending. The crew was in a hurry to remove the tent and did so while prayers were still being said. The mortuary's staff did not intervene. Profoundly disrespectful, hurtful and insensitive.”

“Sinai Mortuary's exceptional service was a beacon of comfort during a difficult time for my family. As we prepared to honor my grandmother's final journey overseas, their dedication to respecting her religious beliefs was profoundly reassuring. Russell, the Managing Director, was impeccable in his coordination. He handled every detail with utmost professionalism, ensuring that the entire process was smooth and seamless. His frequent updates kept us well-informed every step of the way, and his ability to manage the service without missing a beat was truly commendable. We are deeply grateful to Sinai Mortuary and Russell for their compassionate support and superb service.”

“Emotions were running high - of course - when we had to contact Sinai in the middle of the night. The hospital gave us a list of mortuaries and we chose Sinai because because a cousin had used them recently for her husband's services and recommended them highly. Benjamin, the funeral director called us the next morning, and was indescribably kind. His calm, his empathy, his professionalism and focus on our grief comforted us in the midst of chaos. During our initial meeting, he focused on what the family wanted which helped everyone and made all of us and our siblings and their families felt seen in our grief. He coordinated military honors and the interment with the Veterans Administration at the National Memorial Cemetery of Arizona. And he took care of so many other details, none of which would have been as well done -- or done at all -- if he hadn't coordinated it. Our family is grateful. There are no compliments and no amount of compensation which can repay Benjamin at Sinai for his empathy, kindness and compassion and support of the family. Sinai was a true refuge of caring during some of the worst days of our lives.”
