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.

“First I want people to know The Gathering Place can be used for parties, weddings, reunions, etc. I was there for 2 funeral services. I was extremely impressed and when my mom died in August that’s where I went. This place and the people are unbelievable! They are everything you want at such a hard and painful time. Everything is handled with respect and compassion. They know everything you may need and then some. One of the big things for me was that I could bring in my own food. I don’t know of another place that allows that. I could go on and on about how amazing it is. Just don’t settle on a place, go to the best!”

“I recently used coulee cremation. From the beginning.... They made this heartbreaking situation so much more comfortable. They truly care for the family. They went out of their way to accommodate every wish we had. From setting up for the celebration of life, arranging the flowers, plants, food, etc. I cannot thank them enough for all their kindness and support at this most difficult time. I'd highly recommend them to anyone. You will not be disappointed.”
