“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.

“Veilleux Funeral Home provided excellent services for me and my family when my husband passed away. My husband and I had prepaid for our funeral services several years ago, and the care we received was worth every cent. Director Ben was very skilled in his connection with the VA for their services. Great job!”

Within a few days of Sophia’s passing we had everything planned out perfectly with the help of Veilleux and Redington funeral home! Everyone there was incredibly nice and caring. Within seconds of being there I knew we were in great hands! They were very accommodating to all of our wants and needs. They let us make the place feel like home by adding ALL of our personal items to the service. You’re dealing with real, authentic people here who actually cares and is incredibly respectful of your loved one. They truly are like family, if I had to do it all over again I’d choose them.”
