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.

“I recently lost my precious Mother. Her request was to have her service with Fowler Sullivan because of the wonderful guidance and help she received from them when her husband (my father) passed. During this extremely emotional time The Fowler Sullivan staff were so respectful, kind, considerate and caring. The facility is lovely, very affordable and took care of all of our wants and wishes for my Mom’s service. Caitlin and her staff were welcoming and attentive to all of our family and guests who gathered to pay their respects. On behalf of the family for Bonnie Medley we wish to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. If and when the need arises in the future we will secure the services of Fowler Sullivan.”
