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.

“Sean was great to my family. My grandpa recently passed away suddenly and did an amazing job with the service. My parents also did my grandma's funeral service here back in 2018 and they did an amazing job too. We're glad we choose Eichel funeral home again. Thank you for your service Sean during our difficult time, we appreciate your service and loyalty 🙏🏽 ❤️”

“Sean was so nice to work with and made everything as easy as possible for me when my mother passed. We wanted a simple cremation and will be spreading her ashes at sea. There was no hard selling for an urn or additional services, just kindness and compassion. He answered all of my questions patiently and I would recommend Eichel to anyone. Thank you”
