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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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
“My brother and I used Pederson's at the recommendation of extended family after their positive experience and reasonable pricing. We worked with Trish during the planning process of our dad's viewing, service, and cremation. She took her time to explain and walk us through everything while also answering all of our questions. The day of my dad's service we worked with Brad & Tim. The whole team was compassionate and responsive to our needs.”

“i had the absolute best experience here at Pederson Funeral Home. i cannot speak highly enough of all the staff, especially Vicky, who went above & beyond to make sure all my needs were met & i was comfortable. everyone i interacted with was kind & gentle, just the kind of people you want to deal with when going through such a dificult time. the funeral director Tim is incredibly sweet & very warm, i felt so comfortable knowing my brother was in his hands. looking back, i am glad Tim was the one to handle my brother. i would not have wanted anyone else to do it. overall my experience here was so positive & welcoming, i will be recommending this funeral home to whoever i can. i cannot emphasize enough how thankful i am to have chosen them to care for & lay my brother to rest. thank you Tim & Vicky, for all your help & kindness. 🖤🖤🖤”

“Very unprofessional the receptionist lied to my dad myself and my sister. We have used this funeral home before and it was great. Now with the death of my mom they are just very pushy and the level of respect and the our wishes are just being brushed of. Brad also lied to the family more than once. It's not fair to any of us. If I could give them a zero I absolutely would”
