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.

“They were amazing in what they do. Look for Brianna Narciso as she was phenomenal in assisting our family's needs. She went above and beyond from the day I talked to her planning my wife's cremation and until her Celebration of Life Service. The other ladies: Lucy and the other lady (forgot her name) were amazing too during the service as they will comfort you and stay until your are ready to go home. Thank you People's Funeral Chapel.”

“Thank you for your compassionate care of my mother. My brother and I had moved away from Hanford, and you took all the worry and responsibility away from us by transporting her back to Hanford and doing the planning with us long distance. My family has used your services for decades and we have always been touched by your kindness and attention to detail. Thank you again for taking good care of my mother and us. Michael Rogers Xiong”
