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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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
“Our experience with this funeral home during my grandfather’s service in October was extremely disappointing. Despite clear communication and sending all files in advance, major details were mishandled. We didn’t receive the obituary until after the funeral. The wrong songs were played, the wrong photo was used on the program, the poems were split awkwardly across pages, and the final lines of our father’s poem were completely missing. These mistakes caused unnecessary stress on an already hard day. Based on how poorly everything was handled, I would recommend looking elsewhere for funeral services.”
— Isabel Peacock
