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.

“The representative was very professional, cordial and accommodating. Plans, prices and details were discussed clearly and completely with appropriate suggestions and options offered without pressure. Questions were answered completely and clearly. I was afforded ample time to make a decision and finalize my arrangements. No pressure was exerted and the option of changing prearranged decisions in the future was discussed. I couldn't have been more impressed with the Dignity representative and satisfied with the arrangements. It confirmed previous experience my family has had with the Andrew McGann Funeral Home.”
— Bob Mcconville
“Everything detail was perfect for our friend Jule. We couldn’t ask for anything better to be arranged. The staff was all so helpful and kind!”
— Gail Albert
“The funeral director, Nick and also Brittany were amazing, patient, caring and empathetic throughout the whole process. Nick helped tremendously when I didn't even know where to begin. This is a very nice funeral home and the staff is exquisite. Catering that they offered was amazing and a lot of our guests complimented on it. I highly recommend this funeral home for your family.”
— Shannon O'Brenski
