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.

“The meeting to make arrangements was cordial and informative . The agent provided some helpful handout sheets and reviewed the decisions involved for cremation and burial and the corresponding prices. She met with me again the following day to discuss arrangements. The agent’s familiarity with the parish/cemetery involved helped to facilitate communication. I would choose Steele’s Funeral Services again.”
