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.

“Jim, Mandy, and the rest of the team at Apfel Wolfe were nothing short of stellar. The loss of a loved one is never easy. However, their compassion was so great that my family felt cared for as though they were also our family. I would recommend them to anyone is dealing with the difficult time of the loss of a loved.”
— Rene Bue
“I truly cannot say enough good things about them. My mother in laws’ death was rather sudden with no prior planning, my husband and I being in our 20s had no idea where to start or what to do. Every single staff member there is compassionate, patient, knowledgeable and professional. In every way they could, they helped and encouraged us to grieve and be as present in the moment with our family as possible over being overwhelmed with decisions and planning. Despite not having the budget to do any bells and whistles, us and our mother were treated with nothing but respect and dignity.”
— Katie DeVault
