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.

“Ballard Mortuary was the best to go to for my mom’s funeral arrangements. My mother already had a funeral plan with them and it was very easy on our part. Ballard was a huge help during our time of need. Our coordinator Hailama was absolutely incredible in helping us with mom’s arrangements 💯he made it so easy for us from helping us with extra lil needs we wanted. We didn’t have to do anything we just asked him and he did it all. Thank you Ballard for your excellent service and for our awesome coordinator Hailama and the rest of the team for taking good care of our beloved mom 💯🙏🏼”
