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.

“I had a special need for a special family that wanted Aqua Cremation. As a Funeral Professional myself, trusting one of the families that we cared for into the hands of White Rose Aqua Cremation was 100% the right choice. Kahla, was compassionate, professional and genuinely "others-oriented" in her approach to helping families in need. She made this the best experience we could have hoped for... I would give 10 stars if I could.”
— David Finch
