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.

“Thank you Northwest Funeral Chapel! When our student and members of the deaf community passed, you did not hesitate to provide sign language interpreters for them. They had equal access to the homegoing services because of your kindness! I personally know of multiple charitable acts of kindness that Northwest Funeral Chapel has tendered towards struggling and disenfranchised families during the Thanksgiving and holiday seasons. The countless bags of food,clothes and monetary gifts to families who are struggling financially is an unequivocal testimony to your love and commitment to servicing humanity!”

“I cannot thank Northwest Funeral Chapel enough for the care, compassion, and professionalism they showed my family during the passing of my grandfather. From the very beginning, their staff guided us through every step with patience and kindness, making a very difficult time much easier to bear. They took the time to listen to our needs, honored our family’s wishes, and made sure everything was handled with dignity and respect. We appreciate how great they made him look for the viewing and services. We are truly grateful for their support and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of such services.
