Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“I am incredibly grateful for the care Dr. Adrian Weiss provided to me and my two boys during our ER visit. It was a very stressful time for our family, and his kindness, patience, and compassion truly made a difference. He was very knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything clearly, which helped ease our worries and made us feel confident in the care we were receiving. He listened attentively and made sure we felt supported and cared for throughout the entire visit. His calm and reassuring presence meant more than I can express. I sincerely appreciate the level of care and attention he showed us and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of compassionate and professional medical care.”

“I was just in Portsmouth because I had a pleural effusion on my right lung. They were such a great team over there. I was always kept in the loop and they did their best to keep my happy. I mean everyone from the ER to the ones that took care of me during my 5 days stay took extremely good care of me. The MRI CT people were amazing too. They were all so warm amd welcoming. Now the food was awful but the care was great!”
— Kelly Dice
“I was transfered from Hampton veterans hosp. to PNH because of heart failure, organs shutdown basically a old dead sailor. I was in intensive care for almost 3 weeks. I was blessed with the greatest care anybody on earth could recieve. After one of the surgeries I opened my eyes and saw a pair of beings intensively staring by me in the dark lit up by red equipment...I asked if they were angels?...out of the darkness I heard.."sometimes" ...I happily slept. Now I feel healthier than ever, working outdoors like I was young. I feel a great love for the many sailors that performed surgeries and care for me. And great pride in the U.S.N .. Their system, and professional dedication. I am a very blessed Coast Guardsman.”
