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.

“Enough nice words cannot be said about the tender, thoughtful, empathetic, and heartfelt care we received while navigating handling my father’s remains. Melani in particular was a shining ray of light during these awful times, and if it wasn’t for her sweet demeanor, gentle manner of answering questions big and small, we truly would have been lost. Losing a loved one is never easy, but knowing my dad was being cared for with such detail-oriented staff members and in such a pristine location was truly remarkable in soothing our anxieties.”
— Wendy Gracia
“All the details were taken care of - the facility was under construction at the time I arranged it all but when the funeral came you could never tell - they cleaned it up and it was perfect - the transportation to the resting site “Holy cross” was perfect glad we hired the police escort to stop all traffic. The casket was perfect and the staff handled it all and my Dad looked perfect . I appreciate all the work Mike who personally guided me through the entire process - I was guided gently - really - and all the staff from beginning to end were great - I give my experience a 5 star rating - no stress and I receive everything I asked for and everything my father wanted. Michael H. Chula Vista”

“Not so happy with the services . First of all the staff were rushing us on the ceremony of life, especially eulogy part. Then the staff open the contribution box for family . Then my sister asked for the contribution envelopes and the staff rudely said we need to give it to Immediate family insisting .Very rudely . Not recommended”
