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
“Stunning plants! I like the place, people here are very helpful. Most of the plants I bought from there were healthy with the exception some monsteras, but after repoting, cleaning roots and pruning them they're doing a lot better! I have plant lights because my house is dark and they're doing fenomenal! I wish they had more types of bromeliads.”
— Nina
“I absolutely love this place. In the spring and summer, it’s a wonderful spot to visit even if you’re just looking to relax. They have a beautiful pond area with a small waterfall that makes it especially peaceful. Every plant I’ve purchased here has thrived, which speaks to the quality they offer. It’s truly a high quality place with a great atmosphere.”
— Bruce White
“I came in today to purchase some flowers for Grandparents Day. I forgot to ask for her name, but she wrapped the flowers so beautifully, and packaged the other gifts I got so nicely too. She was very sweet.”
