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.

“5+++! Had an excellent experience with Vaughn Greene West (Baltimore Pike). Debra Davis and her team did an exceptional job from start to finish. The colonial styled building was historic, yet elegant and freshly styled. The chapel was small. Perfect for the needs of our family. Most impressive - the clergy and musician assigned to our service. Both were top-notch and beyond our expectations; setting the atmosphere for the occasion. Debra's compassion and attention to detail went above and beyond. I highly recommend VGFS and this location.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We lost a loved one recently and worked with Vaughn Greene Funeral Services. I can't speak highly enough about the compassion and professionalism they demonstrated during a very difficult time for us. From the moment we reached out, the staff was incredibly supportive and attentive, guiding us through every step with patience, genuine care, and sympathy. The facility itself is warm and inviting, offering a serene environment that helped us find comfort during our grief. Every detail was handled with the utmost respect and sensitivity, allowing us to focus on celebrating our loved one's life rather than getting bogged down in logistics. Special thanks to Mr. Greene himself, who went above and beyond to ensure that all our needs were met with kindness and grace. Their dedication made a world of difference, and we felt truly valued as a family. Vaughn Greene Funeral Services is a beacon of support and professionalism in this community, and I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in need of exceptional care after the loss of a loved one. Thank you for making a difficult journey a little easier.”

“My family and I were extremely blessed by the God-centered care we received from the entire personnel. Mr. Vaugn Greene contacted us to offer his condolences and immediately sent an amazing team to my Mother-In-Law’s home and to prepare for her homegoing service. Clifton Greene, Rev Rivera, Rev. Davis, Ms. Gayle and Ms. Bouldin were all outstanding. I absolutely recommend there service when you are in need of funeral services.”
