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 cannot express the level of compassion and understanding the staff of Collins Funeral Home have. My family and I were recently dealing with the passing of my grandmother, and Collins handled everything unbelievably. Every detail was fantastic, the event was held great, and the staff were impeccable. A truly outstanding place.”
— John “Juku” Hanson
“The Best in Fairfield County and probably beyond. Andrew and staff took care of everything and dealt with the Department of Defense and Arlington National Cemetery, which is no easy feat. He went well beyond the call of duty!”
