Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

“During a very difficult time for our family, La Paloma Funeral Home provided exceptional service and care. Esperanza was truly a blessing, kind, compassionate, and incredibly helpful every step of the way. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of and guided us through the entire process with patience and understanding. Esperanza speaks Spanish, which was especially helpful for our family, and she made sure all the paperwork was properly completed so we could send our loved one’s body to Mexico without any issues. We are deeply grateful for her support and professionalism. I highly recommend La Paloma Funeral Home to anyone in need of compassionate and respectful service. Thank you, Esperanza, for everything.
