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
“Jay and his team were simply the best. I never expected to need the services of a funeral home at this point in my life and didn't really know where to call but I was so happy I made this choice. Jay made every step of a very difficult process easier and was available for every question or request. He is simply amazing at what he does. My husband was treated with the utmost respect and our family will be forever grateful for the beautiful way we were able to honor him through this funeral home and services that were arranged. Thank you a million times over.”
— Lalainya OConnell
“I am writing this on behalf of myself and my family, for whom a service was recently held in my father's honor at Applebee Funeral Home. Jay, whom I dealt with, made sure every aspect of this difficult and deeply personal process was handled with dignity and respect. He also went out of his way to ensure we understood every step, so we would know what to prepare for both emotionally and logistically. As someone born and raised in this area, Applebee has always been considered the "gold standard" for families having to go through this, and after experiencing it firsthand, I easily understand why.”
— Anthony Hinman
“Unfortunately, my family has had to use the services of Applebee Funeral Home on multiple occasions. In each instance, Tom Pratt was kind, knowledgeable and organized. During a hard time of grieving, it was a comfort to know that Tom was handling the logistics and administrative details of the funerals and burials. I would recommend his services to anyone.”
