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
“My grand parents, sister, step father and my mother are here. Always well maintained and when I call to make arrangements for a lost soul to join them they are so helpful.”
— David Steffen
“A beautifully ran cemetery that a lot of my ancestors are buried at. Everything is kept nice and tidy and staff are always friendly.”
— Sammy Hager
“You have a mole program they are not just destroying plants but undermining gravestones. Watering stations are hard to find. My stone has been damaged by Snowplowers. Urns now have cheap flowers and feel sorry for those who are paying for them to be filled. Cemetery used to be prettier. Your workers are tearing out annuals that have just been planted.”
