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.

“I had such a lovely experience at The Flower Cottage! I walked over there after the Charleston Farmer's Market on a Saturday morning because I really wanted some fresh flowers for this new vase I purchased. I was so happy that they had fresh sunflowers because they are my absolute favorite! I was able to put a little bundle together myself and it was fun! The lady who was working was so kind, friendly, and helpful! Will definitely return another time!”
