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.

“Terrible terrible terrible. They do not respect the wishes of family! They want to manipulate and fuss at you like you're a child while you go through unthinkable grief. They hurry to start performing the embalming so that they say you can't change funeral homes and must use them. They don't care about anything except how deep in your pocket they can get. Please please please at least call a different funeral home to find out prices and options before you use Young's. The funeral home my family used in Alexandria cost half the amount and was absolutely perfect. The other funeral home went above and beyond and even called after they completed our services to be sure that everything had gone to our liking and offer their condolences again. They did not treat us like children UNLIKE YOUNGS! Young's was absolutely disgusting, and rude towards me and went directly against what my family asked and then said we were lying! Disgusting people. The lady was even rude when they were picking up my family member.”

“Very compassionate and have taken care of services for our loved ones!!”
