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.

“I was in town visiting when I attended the Saturday evening Vigil Mass. Pretty church with a priest who is eager to preach and excited for the faith. The homily was focused on the readings and connected to daily life. Some may have difficultly understanding the priest, but I found his Colombian accent easy to follow. The church was full of young and old alike. The cantor was accompanied by a pianist. I was unfamiliar with the songs being sung and didn't realize there was a music program at the church entrances. God's work is being done here.”

“Blessed Sacrament School is honestly the best school ever! My older daughter is in a 4K currently and she is getting an amazing education! She understands some Spanish got much better in gymnastics and she can even sing much better thanks to music classes! She joined BSCS last year in the middle of the year! Which wasn’t easy… but the daycare she was attending was not good enough for her! She was bored and needed structure and challenge! Blessed Sacrament Catholic School is very family oriented and seems like every teacher we worked with is very professional and has been with this school for a long time! My 3 year old is joining 3k this year and I can’t wait to see how she will thrive there! Principal Miss King knows every student by name and I can’t think of any other person who would be better for her role! Mrs King and Mrs Alvarez 3k were just incredible for my older daughter last year my younger daughter will be joining them soon! Mrs Mikell and Mrs Rhoads 4K currently taking care of my daughter! I trust them 100% Did I mention a great nurse Mrs Avis I have emailed her few times with questions and she is on point with providing quick responses! Like any other parents who cares about their kids I’m trying to keep up and do as much as I can as a parent but honestly they are all doing such a good job that I have no worries! Charleston police department is on site often which is another reason to love that school! We drop off our older daughter around 7 am and pick her up everyday around 5-530 thanks to their after hours program:-) they play hard during that time so when she gets home she easts dinner and it’s a relax time! I think I should stop with my novel here but I honestly can’t be more proud for my daughters to be in BSCS! I know school is constantly evolving and growing! Very clean and sweet! I never had a chance to attend school like that growing up so the fact that I can send my daughters here is a true blessing! My daughter didn’t get a chance yet, but they do have a great sports program as well! I mean, honestly, you can think of it they do it. You can dream about it. They have it.! I wouldn’t think too long and I would send my kids here again and again! Well needless to say I love this school. Thank you ladies and gentlemen for everything you do and keep up a good work!”
