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 family and I couldn't be more satisfied with the care and concern we received with the death of my wife. She died at home and the entire process was handled with respect and dignity for both my wife and the family in attendance. Steve O'L. was outstanding in his compassion, sympathy and concerns of our needs during this very tragic time. The entire staff acted in the same manner. The entire process went smoothly and was not rushed. We were given the time we needed to both grieve and make the necessary decisions. We strongly recommend the Beinhauer organization for when the need arises.”

None of us live nearby, but they made it possible for me to take care of funeral arrangemnts for them, alleviating them from the burden of paying for an unexpected loss. Great care and kindness. Thank you.”
