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 wanted to explore an old haunted style cemetery in New Orleans but because all the other ones cost money I decided to come here. The cemetery is open to the public and is free. You can see the spooky old and gritty vibe to it. Some of the graves are huge. This cemetery is certainly off the beaten path but it was definitely worth it especially because it’s free.”
— Drew Rowley 973
“The Saint Vincent de Paul Cemetery on Louisa Street is not to be confused with the Uptown cemetery of the same name. This was originally a privately owned cemetery, owned be Jose Pepe Llalla. The cemetery is somewhat unique in its mix of nationalities and religions. The cemetery is open every day and divided into three sections, in the same area.”
— Louis and Elaine
“Everyone was very compassionate and answered all of our wishes. Graveside experience was professional and on time. After one minor adjustment, everything went perfectly. Thank you for assisting our family during a extremely difficult time.”
— Robbie Milliet
