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.

“Gina and her team at Rinaldi Funeral services were incredibly supportive and steady during a difficult time. After calling several funeral homes in the area, Gina was the only one to offer her condolences for my family’s loss. We arranged for my father’s viewing to be held at a church and Rinaldi Funeral services was very accommodating. They treated my father and family with great care. I would definitely recommend their services.”
