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.

“Dan Fairchild is amazing. I highly recommend him. Dan was kind, compassionate, thorough, incredibly knowledgeable, and responded to my emails seemingly instantly, regardless of the time of day (I live in California so there is a three-hour difference). I also recommend that you, like my sister who passed away, make funeral arrangements with Dan for yourself, before you pass away. By making arrangements with Dan in advance, she spared us the burden of wondering what she wanted. Thank you, Mr. Fairchild, for making a difficult time much less difficult.”
— Walter Moore
