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.

“If I could , I would give this place absolutely NO STARS ! First off, the hostess was very polite and had us seated immediately. Given the fact that it was 2am, it was pretty empty and quiet. Our waitress came to the table and greeted my wife and I as “Girls” . To be exact, she said “Hey Girls” and more than once. She never once told us her name , we had to ask. She replied, “Maldy”, in a snobby way. Now, it’s time to order food , the manager came over to our table to explain a few things about the “meats they serve”. My wife was extremely patient and still nice to the waitress. The food arrives and it’s cold, undercooked, and the bacon is on top of my eggs. Presentation, is everything and proper food temp is life or death. I would highly not recommend this diner to anyone. Photos attached. Food is made from the heart. This food was thrown on the plate! The icing on the cake was, the waitress never checked in after the food was brought out to ensure everything was okay. We simply paid for the coffee.”

“HUGE DINER, HUGE MENU 🍔🍝🍳🥗 We stopped here for lunch and had a very good meal. The parking lot was large and very easy to get into. The diner itself had plenty of room to find a seat. The menu is expansive and can accommodate many different types of food. We had burgers, sandwiches and breakfast and all were very good. They also have a separate kids menu. Do be careful and check your bill 💵 We did find a curious mistake. The waiter said he accidentally gave us an upgraded item from the kitchen but then he added it to the bill. May not have been malicious but it was curiously strange. A reminder to always check receipts. Good food, Good atmosphere, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
