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 fortunate enough to have parents that pre planned and paid for their funeral expenses ahead of time. Dana, Melissa and their staff treated me like family. They were kind, caring and compassionate. They handled every detail with precision and respect. I wouldn’t even look any further than Babione in such an emotional and sad time. Simply the best!”
— Mark Noviello
“We can’t express enough how the wonderful staff of Babione -Kraeer made our experience easier to manage. We buried our Mom (Doll) with very heavy hearts because we absolutely adored her. The theme the staff put together with her belongings made her boat ride to the other side a smoother acceptance for us. Dana, Tom and the rest of the staff (you too Irish) we will never forget how you helped us through this difficult period. Thank you all for the outstanding send off for Doll. The Walker Family”
— Ellen Walker
“The knowledge of our needs addressed beyond my expectations. I can’t express how much the support and compassion that was extended, is unforgettable and made a difference in our difficult time. If I had a question or concern, one phone call or email and the response was immediate. Every aspect and situation was addressed. I can’t thank these wonderful people enough for their concern for my husband. Every aspect of our lives they handled with understanding, respect and compassion. Thank you”
