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 met with the funeral Director ( Rev. Alston) just about two years ago concerning my mother's final needs. He explained everything that I would need from start to finish. He kept in touch and did everything he said he would. When my mother passed away, all I did was make the telephone call and they took care of me and my family. He was kind enough to do the same with my sister. I'm so happy that I went to meet with him prior to my mother's passing. The entire presentation from the funeral home to the church service was professional. My mother was beautiful for her final viewing.”
