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.

“My experience with Readshaw Funeral Home has been nothing short of exemplary. I entrusted the care of my father to them fifteen years ago and, just last week, that of my mother. They were attentive to every detail and provided comfort and peace of mind to my sister and me during a time of sorrow. Kevin is a consummate professional. He is patient, discrete, compassionate, and a gifted speaker. The showing was perfect in each case and the final ceremony was tasteful, well orchestrated, and peaceful. The tone was exactly right. On a more practcal note, the pricing was very reasonable and there has never been any pressure to "up-sell" on any aspect of the final arrangements. It is my pleasure to recommend their services when the time comes. Jeff Betts”
