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 attended a wake here recently. The deceased family was telling me how much of a horror show it was to facilitate this funeral the way they wanted. During the most difficult time in my friend's life, she had to deal with untoward behavior from the funeral directors and the staff. She said she didn't want to leave a bad review, but I will.”

“I can't say enough good things about Iovanne Funeral Home and its staff. Billy, Cliff, and everyone there are truly gifted with kindness and compassion toward families of the deceased. We have been using their services for many decades, and we couldn't be more pleased. Most recently, my Mom passed. Billy and I cried on the phone together. He insisted on going to get her late in the evening because he didn't want her to be alone. That meant the world to me. Mom didn't look like herself after having suffered a long illness. I couldn't believe the care Billy took in making her look at least 15 years younger. Perfectly done make-up, he curled her hair, and even polished her nails! He knew that's how Mom would have wanted to look. He even said some very kind words about Mom at the end of the service. If you are trying to decide whether to use their services, you shouldn't hesitate! Sincerely, the Capone and Trotta families”
