“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.

“Patricia Jackson of the Moran & Goebel Funeral Home is truly a gift to Families, in there time of need. She not only assisted us with all the many things that needed to be done for the Services, but went above and beyond with her level of care and Professionalism. The Staff did an excellent job at ever step of the process from the time we entered the Facility, until they were released at the Re pass. Patricia stayed after hours to make sure we got all the finishing touches to the Families liking, guiding and suggesting us with her Years of experience. These things are never easy to deal with and trust me, I know. Having come from a very large Family in Indianapolis. We have had to go through this process many times. I only wish that we had Moran & Goebel in our City, with a Patricia Jackson, who’s Compassion, experience and Strong Communication skills to guide other Families throughout the process of loosing a Loved One.”
