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.

“My cousins funeral is today. The viewing service was supposed to begin at 10 am with the funeral service to follow at 11am. It is now 11:19 am and my family and I are STILL standing outside WAITING to be let in for the services that were supposed to begin at 10 am. This is absolutely ABSURD! I have never in my life witnessed something so unprofessional. My grieving family and I have been waiting OUTSIDE in the freezing cold since 10 am for someone to AT LEAST open the door. I will never come here again. I only gave one star because I couldn’t post without giving one.”
