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
“Fellows, Helfenbein and Newnam Funeral Home in Easton, MD has the most caring and considerate people I have ever met. It only took one visit to make my wishes known and they handled EVERYTHING else. I even changed my mind about something a few days later and they excepted the change without any bother at all. They made recommendations when I asked and walked me through the whole process as painlessly as possible. They were patient, and respectful and never encouraged me to buy anything. It was obvious that they realized arranging this funeral was the hardest thing I ever had to do. I highly recommend their service.”
— Diana Beall
