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.

“I never thought I would leave a review for a funeral home, yet here I am. I can't express enough gratitude to the staff at the Laemmrich Chapel - Wichmann Funeral Home. Amanda and Linda handled my Mom's funeral with compassion and professionalism. They were patient with me every step of the way. The service was exactly what we planned and they never made me feel overwhelmed. They really did a nice job - Not only with the service, but afterwards too. I received a copy of all messages that were submitted online after the funeral. Plus, I was invited to a holiday service for anyone who recently lost a loved one I really appreciate this since the holidays are so difficult this year. I also received a hand-written holiday card. They really do go above and beyond and I couldn't recommend them enough!”
