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
“This was the second time we have used Lord and Stephens Funeral Home. Both times we had a wonderful experience. My Momma passed away in August. We had to wait a few weeks to have her funeral due to Covid in our family. They worked with us and was so patient and understanding. Her service was beautiful. Our funeral director was Dale Rogers. He was truly kind and comforting to my family. His staff was great too. They have since reached out to check on us and send us links to help with our grieving. Could not have ask for a better experience during the loss of our loved one. We would highly recommend them to anyone. Many thanks for your hard, dedicated work!”
— Rhonda Durand
