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 extremely satisfied with the customer service provided by Kimmel W. Orville Kimmel Funeral Home, Inc. From the very beginning, our family was treated with respect, compassion, and true professionalism during one of the most difficult moments of our lives. The level of care and attention we received went above and beyond our expectations. They made us feel supported, heard, and guided every step of the way. I am especially grateful that they went above and beyond by helping us secure a donation to help cover funeral expenses, a gesture we will never forget and that truly speaks to their kindness and dedication to the families they serve. I am deeply thankful for their empathy, warmth, and outstanding service. I would highly recommend this funeral home to any family seeking compassionate, dignified, and genuinely caring service. Thanks Ms. Marieanne”

“Maryanne is amazing, she not only took care of my mother but also took care of me as I was (and still am) going through difficult times. She made a beautiful obituary, helped me with the local funeral service. Also, I had to take my mom overseas and Marianne helped with all the required paperwork in a very short notice. Thanks so much!”
