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.

“The professional, yet personal services provided by the Magner Funeral Home and the Magner family have been an integral part of three generations of my own family. Relying on their expertise, attention to detail, and overall kindness have always been so comforting when faced with those difficult times throughout my entire family’s lives. My immediate family especially, along with the many past and present generations of Leonards, Stephanaks, O’Connors and Jones families are so very grateful to Jim Sr, Michael, Jay and Maribeth and the Magner Funeral Home for their exemplary service to us and the surrounding communities they serve.
