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.

“I have been through the hardest part of my life when my son passed away. I would not wish this for anyone. We had lots of support ...but we were numb and life had stopped as we knew it( as we wanted it to be) Lindsay Sherman was a knowledgeable, kind compassionate guide for us while we navigated through this awful time in our life. I don't think we could have gotten through it without her support and guidance. She informed us of every step along the way in this process. I would HIGHLY recommend Bohnenkamp Murdock Funeral Home,to anyone needing their services.”
