Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“Groce Funeral Home has served our family in times of great sorrow. Our family was guided throughout the process personally by Mr. Dale Groce for the funerals for our mother in July of 2013 and our father in February of 2024. The care and guidance from Mr. Groce and the entire staff with Groce Funeral Home was impeccable. The attention to details for every step from visitation to funeral to graveside helped us to ensure we followed their final wishes to the best of our ability and within our financial abilities. The compassion shown to each and every family member while making the final decisions during such an emotional time for our family was beyond what we expected and so appreciated by everyone. The followup after the funerals and burials to help us with the paperwork we needed for other documentation was definitely an assistance we did not expect, but it was given with the same high level professionalism and quality personal service as when we were planning the funerals. We're so grateful for the genuine care shown to our family as we said our final goodbyes to both our parents, and we are thankful we trusted Groce Funeral Home with our families needs.”
