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.

“The Donovan funeral home handled my husband's cremation and assisted in the memorial service. Very professional, always available by phone or in person to handle any requests/questions that we had. We would highly recommend Donovan Funeral Home when you need a funeral director.”
— Jane Huffman
“Donovan Funeral Home went above and beyond, during a very stressful and difficult time. I called them on a Saturday morning when my father passed away at home this past October. Having never talked to them prior, they came within an hour or so, and were very professional and caring. Jim Donovan and his son James assisted us with all the arrangements for the calling hours, Catholic Mass and Military Burial. We are so appreciative and greatful for how caring and attentive they were during the process and how smoothly everything went.”

“Would NEVER use this funeral home again. During my mom's service, the head guy fell asleep, doing absolutely nothing. Try Anthony Funeral Homes - they truly care about the grieving family.”
— Ms Marie
