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.

“The Harris Funeral Home is a very professional business. They are very sympathetic to your needs at the time of your loss. I've had several family members that we entrusted them to provide a wonderful service for the deceased and the rest of the family and it was delivered with great care and professionalism. Keep up the great work and services that you are providing to the community. You are very much so loved.”

“The staff was extremely professional, well organized, and patient with my family during our time of bereavement. I loved how detailed they were in every aspect of planning my father's homegoing. No detail was too small for them. A consistent reputation of respect, compassion, & organization comes to mind when I think of Harris Funeral Home.”
