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.

“I was never hoping to be in the position to be leaving a review for a funeral home, but, I am, and I can tell you that there is no better group of people you want handling the death of your loved one than the Molloys. I called around to places when my sister was dying and I got thorough, thoughtful, and concise answers from Shauna Molloy, hands down clearer and better than any other funeral home. This was the place, I knew it. I live in Boston, not Connecticut, and was on my own taking care of what needed to be done concerning my sister’s passing and I was able to turn the reigns over to the Molloys and they handled it all. Chris Molloy even called me on a Sunday to talk about what they needed to do and made sure to ask me how I was and to make sure I drink water and take care of myself. Even that, THAT, is what I needed at that moment. I’ve just picked up my sister’s cremains and the urn is beautiful and everyone connected with the Molloy funeral home is just a step above. Chris and Shauna Molloy are a gift, truly compassionate, truly professional.”

“Chris and the team are total pros. They handled the arrangements for my father’s funeral services earlier this month with care and professionalism. Chris and Shauna helped us through the planning process which can be very overwhelming, but they broke it down step by step, made helpful recommendations, and made planning feel manageable during a very difficult time. We were able to have both the wake and funeral at our family’s parish. Everything went well and they even remembered to bring several boxes of tissues for us.”

“When dealing with the most devastating circumstances, Molloy Funeral Home is so easy to work with. As a long time resident West Hartford, I have driven by a million times and even attended many services here. Not until the death of my mother though had I ever walked through their office door. Chris Molloy made the process easy and smooth at a time when our heads were spinning. Thank you so much for everything.”
