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
“Our family entrusted this funeral home during one of the most painful times in our lives. The funeral was held on February 16th, and the obituary was never posted online. On February 18th, we spoke directly with the director and were told it would be uploaded shortly. We were informed there was a delay due to it being translated into Spanish. We understood and expected it to be handled promptly. It is now February 25th. The obituary has still not been posted, and we have already picked up our loved one’s remains. At this point, this is no longer a minor delay — it is a failure to follow through on a basic and meaningful part of the service. An obituary is not just a formality. It is a matter of dignity and respect, and it allows family and friends the opportunity to honor and remember someone properly. We are extremely disappointed by the lack of action and communication during such a sensitive time.”

“A Truly Compassionate Professional I want to extend my deepest gratitude to Tasha at Montlawn Funeral Home for the incredible care and compassion she showed our family while arranging our mother’s funeral. During one of the hardest moments of our lives, Tasha guided us with patience, kindness, and professionalism every step of the way. She listened closely to our wishes, understood our emotions, and treated our mother’s memory with the utmost respect. Her attention to detail and her calm, reassuring presence brought comfort to our entire family. Tasha made a painful process feel manageable, and for that we are truly grateful. Thank you, Tasha, for going above and beyond. Your support meant more to us than words can express. Montlawn is blessed to have someone like you helping families through such difficult times.”

“With utmost appreciation and gratitude, I want to thank Sonja Cheatham at Montlawn Funeral Home for show so much compassion, care and excellence in customer service that she has shown to me during this hard time in my life. She listened with empathy to all my concerns and assured me that everything was going to be alright and I really felt that I was in good hands. The burial of someone of someone you truly love can be very stressful but Sonja Cheatham helped put some of those stressful moments at ease for myself and the family. I feel that she was my angel in disguise and again I appreciate her being there and staying in contact with me throughout the entire process. I just want to say thanks again to Sonja Cheatham for your encouragement and just being there for me and the family during this difficult time. You are a true asset to Montlawn Funeral Home.”
