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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“If I could give Ralph Williams 10 stars, I would. On April 7, 2021, the service for our Aunt was entrusted to Ralph Williams. Two days prior to the service, Mr. Williams met me at the mall and picked up the outfit selected for Aunt's final viewing. Mr. Williams restored our loved one so beautifully. Words cannot describe the comfort this brought to Aunti's husband, their daughter and our family. Mr. Williams is a young man who is clearly passionate and gifted--with a servant's heart. Mr. Williams, thank you so very much.”
