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.

What Families Say
“Jeff did a wonderful job with my father’s services, the process was smooth and easy and he had a lot of nice options as far as caskets go with decoration for them. Thanks Jeff”
— Christopher Reiss
“For several years, my brother Dorman had a pre-paid funeral contract with Dunn Funeral Home. As he became less capable, I helped him from Florida, and my son helped him from MA. We were sad to have to use Dunn's services in late January, but pleased with how they handled everything. Jeff Meyer was thoughtful and kind and thorough with all the details. I sincerely thank Jeff and his staff for lightening our worries and taking good care of Dorman and his family.”
— Paul Sedelmeyer
“It’s taken me 5 years to write this review….. it’s been 5 years since my grandmother passed suddenly and I had to pick a funeral home to come get my grandma to only experience the worst possible things. After being picked up by two men who forgot any type of covering and had to use my grandmothers bedding to cover her… i was greeted by a “ substitute” for the funeral director while he was on vacation. Not only did he tell me my grandmother is just a number to the state and that she’ll sit in the basement until things are sorted but he made stingy comments once I had questions about make up. See my grandmother never wore makeup and how anything other than natural would be odd to the family. He then proceeded to tell me how this is his area of expertise and Not to question him, that he will do whatever it is that he has too do. He then also explained because she was on state and was only going to get cremated we were “ taking food away from his family’s table “ because we could not afford an up charge on anything… after he was “ nice enough “ to offer a small showing to say bye… once that came time the “ real” director came back and explained how he doesn’t know why he would offer anything for free or why he was rude but he’ll “ talk to him “… so in the end I hold on to a bill from a scam artists who has charges for embalming my grandmother when there was no showing accompanied by a charge for a hearse ride.. ( never happened) NEVER AGAIN. Would I use this company. I hope whoever is grieving get to grieve without dealing with money hungry losers.”
