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
“Our family entrusted R. N. Horton Funeral Services with my father’s homegoing celebration, and we could not have asked for a more beautiful experience. They were also entrusted them with the home going of my grandmother 15+ years ago. From start to finish, everything was handled with the utmost professionalism, care, and compassion. Mr. Bowling was amazing to work with. He ensured that everything went smoothly and that he was there to support us throughout this difficult process. The quality of the keepsakes was outstanding, and every detail was customized to perfection. The programs and additional touches were thoughtfully designed and reflected our father’s life so beautifully. Most importantly, my father looked absolutely wonderful. Laying a loved one to rest is always a difficult task. But, we must also have humility and remember that everyone is working in your loved ones best interest. Words truly cannot express our family’s gratitude. Thank you for helping make such a difficult time a little more bearable and honoring our father in such a meaningful way.”
