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.

“Kyle and Melissa showed alot of support and made my father's wake a beautiful experience. I can't thank them enough. I especially love the extra sentimental items you leave with. From the candle with my father on it to the mini photo album that includes pictures of the flowers and cards that were displaying during the wake.”
— Michelle Formella
“Having to cope with sudden loss of my dad was the most difficult thing we've ever had to do. Melissa made this experience bearable and we cannot imagine anyone else helping us get through it. We've never had to make arrangements for anyone thus far and didn't know where to start, but they picked up all the pieces and took care of everything. They never even once referred to dad as a body, always as a person as if he was still with us. We are so grateful for everything and would not recommend anyone else, they are truly the best.”
— Dorothy Florescu
