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.

“Robert E Evans Funeral Home provided professional, compassionate advice and direction for an already emotionally fraught process. I appreciate everything they did to ensure that my aunt had a dignified memorial service.”
— David Corbett-Kelsall
“The funeral home was everything we needed them to be. Heather was easy to work with and very professional, she gave good advice and guidance on the process. The funeral home director who worked with us on the day of the event was also on point and very caring.The remembrance table they put together at the viewing was well done and very well thought out, and the room looked beautiful. I would highly recommend this funeral home.”
— Mike DDD
“We went with Robert E. Evans because they had taken care of our cousin when she passed and we felt they had taken good care of her. They guided us through the entire process very well, with patience and compassion, reminding us of information we would need for various forms, as well as writing the obituary. The funeral director we were dealing with kept us informed at every step of way, sending emails to update us as things progressed. We can't really express the appreciation we have for everyone with whom we interacted and how caring they were.”
