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.

“This family funeral home made my mother's complex funeral tolerable and less costly than what I believe their competitors may have done. Karen thoughtfully coordinated having my mother's body flown to be buried in California by another mortuary in California. She worked with my sister who lived near their funeral home and myself via phone in Michigan. This was a sad time and Karen's professionalism made this experience far less painful than it could have been. She helped us avoid unnessary expenses that less considerate places have been shown to have caused fiscal pain. I am grateful my sister found this place.”

“My experience with my loss has been unfathomable...the memory will forever haunt me. Blake funeral home intercepted in the time of need. The gratitude I have for their service, will be with me the rest of my life. My daughter's remains are detailed in a specific manner that nobody else can ever know..... the sunflower. I received her in an urn decorated with sunflowers.... the choice of the funeral home, not myself. That's a God effect! Thank you 🙏”
