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
“I highly recommend Heights Funeral Home. From start to finish they handled everything with such care. The service was perfect. Jared was a pleasure to work with during a very difficult time for our family.”
— Holly Waters
“Rebecca Davis is a complete professional. She listened carefully to our needs and matched them with the services provided. The underlying company has financial strength to assure funeral expenses will be paid as promised.”
— Nancy Belcher
“My son passed away 5 years ago and they handled that process just fine. The reason for the 1 star rating is I recently received a text message from them that they needed to update their system of records as they were moving to a digital system and there were discrepancies. They needed me to come in for this to update the system. When I got to the office, it was clear the reason they wanted me there was to sell me funeral planning plans for myself. There was no system discrepancies of the paperwork. This is an extremely shady business practice and no wonder they aren't BBB accredited.”
