They may just be busy, dealing with a family issue, or don't have an outward facing document already setup that talks about benefits and costs. I interviewed for a job recently and they told me they don't include that information in job offers but could make some photocopies for me if need be. I thought it was really odd. If you're knocked out just for asking, then I would personally be concerned about working there.

I'd follow up with the person/ team making the offer, and let them know you can have an answer as soon as you have benefits info in hand.
Be sure the offer doesn't expire in the meantime!
