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 highly recommend Austin and Bell in White House. During an incredibly difficult time for my family they provided the professionalism and compassion our family needed. They handled my mother's cremation with the utmost dignity. Ms. Cindi walked us through every step, ensuring we understood the options without any pressure or feeling rushed. I left there that day feeling calmer then when I arrived. They treated us as if we were family; not just a number. We did not have a funeral at the location but can say I have been to a few there and everyone has always spoken highly of them.”
— Karen Shadwick
“My family and I are so grateful for the kindness and compassion Cindi gave to us before and after my father passed. It was a blessing to work with her during such a difficult time. Sean was so kind to follow up with us after the funeral to see how we were. Such a blessing to be able to trust our father to Austin and Bell.”
— Maureen McGuire
“My experience at Austin & Bell has been very good. The personnel have all been very helpful and discreet and always available to answer my questions especially Cindi very nice and a pleasure to work with.”
