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.

“Joe and the staff at Kiley-Foley have helped myself and many loved ones through some tough times always in a professional way and with a personal touch. I can't say enough in a short post, but would highly recommend them for you or your family's needs.”
— Kevin Martin
“Had TWO unexpected deaths in the last three months. Distance was involved and so we worked via email, text, Docusign and Square to get thru the process. The process was easier than expected… Ryan and Joe were fantastic to work with, from initial contact to meeting to pickup our loved ones ashes. Five Star +++ Thank you K&F”
— Bill K (Dollar Bill)
“I can't recommend them enough! I just lost my mom very unexpectedly. On a whim I did a google search and found this place. I was very lucky. Ryan was incredibly kind and helpful through the whole process. He answered my questions and helped me figure out what to do. Overall, the process was quick, efficient, and affordable.”
