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.

“Honestly everybody from BR is buried here. Im not sure that I don't have relatives that are buried here. It's a nice funeral home. I've been to large funeral passings here and small gatherings. Some so large that your favorite rapper Boosie, YoungBoy, Credo, and Gates have all visited here(respectively) and respectfully for there loved ones. On my Grandmother's grave! They keep the plot cut and the headstone relatively clean, still need some wiping, however I'm not complaining! There is a stone size and requirement here but I wish large head stones were able to be place here but it does look really clean with all the graves and headstones at the same level.”

“I want to Thank everyone at Winnfield for the beautiful work they did. They did a great job with my mom services. Everything was so beautiful and professional. I really want to thank Christian especially for all his patience he gave me during this process. He was so sweet and kind to my family. Christian made this hard time seem just a little easier. 💔Sometimes having a kind person like him can help lift your spirit while you deal with a loss. I know my mom would be proud of how beautiful she looked that day. They did her right. Winnfield did a great job.🥹 And I love the throw with her face on it.🥰”

“From the bottom of my heart, I want to say thank you! My grandmother passed away unexpectedly on April 4th and we visited Winnfield on the 7th to plan her services! From 7th up until the 12th when we buried her, Winnfield took great care of my family and my grandmother. They made sure that we had everything we needed to process the lost of my grandmother. BIG SHOUT OUT to Christian for being everything and more to our family. 10/10! Highly recommend!”
