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.

“FairHaven treated the recent death of our mother/wife in a very respectful and dignified manner. When we had a memorial service at a local church, the men who came to help set up, bring in the flowers, etc., and greet people were so attentive to all the details. They took care of everything and we appreciated that during the difficult time. When we met with Jared, he was very thorough and answered all of our questions. We can't speak highly enough about the services that FairHaven provides.”
— Kris McGuire
“My husband recently died. My daughter contacted funeral homes to price cremation services. She was SO impressed with Fairhaven's upfront pricing, and the fact that Fairhaven did not yse that vulnerable moment to upsell its services. Fairhaven very quickly handled everything surrounding cremation of the body, and expedited the issuance and delivery of death certificates. The staff is very pleasant and efficient. I cannot say enough to recommend Fairhaven.”
— Leah Hencier
“Fairhaven was very helpful when my brother passed away. My brother lived on the streets before ending up in a nursing home. They showed him complete respect and help me write an obituary that was also respectful. Thanks for everything Deborah Carper”
