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.

“Spent some time at Notre Dame cemetery on Daggett Avenue in Pawtucket this memorial week and was so impressed with how beautiful, well maintained and peaceful it was. The staff was so helpful, kind and just lovely to speak with. Although I had received an immediate response to my earlier phone call, on this day I approached some men who were out on the grounds working, but who went out of their way to give me additional assistance in finding my sight…..even going so far as turning their equipment around, returning to their office and providing me with a cemetery layout and specific directions to my grandparent’s and god father’s stone. I look forward to a return trip to walk the grounds and rest my mind from every day stuff. It’s the perfect place for that.”

“Just visited for Father's day. Just what my visit should be spending time with my lost love one not cleaning up all the untreated grass growing so high it should landscaped accordingly like it use to be. Has been a family cemetery for many generations as well veterans”
— Kathy Plasse
“Mark and his team work very hard to keep this cemetery looking its best. The cemetery is very old, and is a great place to go for a walk and pray for the souls of the faithful departed.”
— Stephen Battey
