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?”
Ask whether assignment is available for your policy and location, what fees apply, and what you must pay upfront. MedaSynq does not arrange assignments.
“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
Under the FTC Funeral Rule, funeral homes must give price information by telephone and a written General Price List when you visit in person. Federal law does not require them to send the list by mail or email. You can select individual goods and services and use a casket purchased elsewhere.

“Very respectful people, they don't charge an arm and a leg, and all in all made a very difficult time much easier for me. Mrs.Ross was so patient and understanding with me, and walked me through everything I needed to do. She made things so much easier. I am very grateful, and will be using them in the future.”
— Jennifer Brunson
“My family's has been using the services of Ross & Clayton for more than 40 years. Always warm, professional, caring and loving. The entire staff was very accommodating. They have been a beacon to the community, stepping up helping families that could not bury their love one because they they had NO money or NOT ENOUGH money. The staff at Ross made it happen. It was that kind of love that caused my family to be repeat customers. They've provided their services for about 15 of my family members. Never been disappointed, NOT once. I was filled with happiness when they finally expended their facility. They had outgrown their old facility. It was a testament that when your do right, face your mistakes when they occur, treat people with dignity and respect, remembering people are grieving and they need your compassion, patience and understanding, you will do well and be blessed.”
