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 can't thank Katie and the staff enough for the service they provided my sister during this difficult time. Just the initial meeting to go over the process and options, was very easy and comforting. No stone was left unturned. Having been through this process and attended many funerals, this one was beyond what I could've every imagined. We were all pleasantly surprised on the creative way they took the pictures and items and made life-size displays that honored my sister's husband in the most amazing way. Thank you for all the thoughtful touches!”

“Losing my grandmother was one of the hardest experiences of my life, but Kristen, our funeral director, made the process so much more manageable. She was incredibly kind, compassionate, and always accessible by text whenever we had questions or concerns. Kristen truly listened to every detail we shared about my grandmother and thoughtfully incorporated them into the service—from the background on her obituary to the words spoken during the ceremony and even the decorations reflecting my grandmother’s favorite hobbies. One of the most touching gestures was that Kristen even wore my grandmother’s favorite pattern, leopard print, to the service. I never once felt alone in the planning process because Kristen was always just a message away. Her dedication and personal touches meant the world to my family, and I can’t recommend her enough to anyone going through such a difficult time.”

“Our family was so thankful to have Caruth Village for our loved one's cremation and funeral service. Andrew Gonzalez patiently walked us through the entire process. We chose the celebration of life package and when our family walked through the door for the funeral service, we were so amazed at the beautiful job they did and how they shared what kind of person our loved one was through pictures and displays of his favorite hobbies. The entire staff went above and beyond our expectations and our family can't thank them enough for helping and supporting us through this difficult time.”
