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
“The people at Hooper, Huddleston, & Horner were so very helpful to our family. Our mama was in stage 5 kidney failure, so we felt it best to try and plan ahead. They helped us set up a pre-need payment plan and determine most of the details ahead of time. When she did pass away, even though expected it still seems unexpected! They once again managed all the details, helped accommodate our wishes for burial and with the Celebration of Life plans. In addition to their kind and caring service, the pre-need plan met all our needs! I would highly recommend them”
— Sue Copeland
“In one of the most difficult times of our lives, the team at Hooper, Huddleston and Horner funeral home provided comfort, guidance, and incredible care as they guided us through making the arrangements for our son‘s service. From the very first conversation they treated our family with genuine compassion and made sure every detail was handled thoughtfully and with great respect. What truly stood out was how personal and attentive they were. In our community that means everything. They didn’t just help us plan a service – they honored our son’s memory in a way that felt truly meaningful and fitting for who he was. Every step of the process was handled with kindness, patience, and sincerity, and we are forever grateful for their support. Thank you to Bryant Presley, Seth Presley, Judy Duke, and Sandy Jernigan, along with everyone at the funeral home, for making a heartbreaking experience just a little more bearable through their care and dedication.”
