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.

“Lenny and Christine Zeller are the best. They are extremely comforting and sweet to you in your grief. I recently lost my husband and I could not have had a better experience with their professioalism through the entire process, if I can call it that, of having my husband's service and burial. I highly recommend them. I couldnot have chosen anyone that was so kind, gentle and knowledgable. Lenny guided me through the entire process setting everything up after my husband went to be with Jesus. They are wonderful. I cannot say anything but good things about them.”

“Recently, a dear friend of ours from high school passed away. Mrs. Zeller drove twenty miles to retrieve a special gift basket to deliver to the family. My friends and I were flabbergasted at her kindness in doing this for us. The gift basket was from a store that did not make deliveries. Mrs. Zeller allowed us to show our concern and care for the family that would not have been possible but for her actions. We will not forget her kindness.”
