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.

“My family is so incredibly grateful for the compassion and professionalism shown during the loss of a beloved family member whose life was taken far too young. The entire staff treated us with kindness and respect during one of the hardest times in our lives. I want to give a very special thank you to Dani. Her compassion, patience, and genuine care for my family truly stood out. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled with dignity and helped guide us through such a painful time. Her support meant more to me than words can express, and I will always be grateful.”

I would recommend utilizing dignity for your loved ones final wishes. Thank you to Dani and the rest of the team for their great care during a difficult time.”

“Although my parents had made prearrangements many years ago, when my father passed, there were so many decisions that needed to be made before his service. Everyone at White Chapel Funeral Home were patient, kind, and professional throughout the entire process. I have told by many how beautiful Dad's service was. This would not have been possible without the guidance of everyone at White Chapel.”
— Jennifer Hutton
