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.

“Funeral Director Mark and all the staff from front desk to other directors were so helpful and kind. From the first phone calls made and the initial meeting to finalize plans. Their pricing is also available on their website and easy to access. Thank you all for making the planning and the visitation/service/reception run so smoothly for us. The spaces are also very nice and clean.”

“Schrader Funeral Home in Ballwin, Missouri, and particularly Eric helped my family through the toughest time in our lives. Eric was patient, compassionate and thorough, and if I had to go through the same thing again, I would want these folks by my side.”
— Christopher Swatosh
“My husband was sick for many years. When it was time to look at funeral homes, my daughter called some in the area. She told me that we would be using Schrader, as the interaction she had with them was much more warm and friendly than any other. She told me with confidence that Schrader was a clear standout. When my husband passed, I experienced first hand what my daughter conveyed. Every interaction was friendly and compassionate and everything was truly beautiful. Cody is an amazing human and I couldn’t have asked for a better funeral director. Schrader is truly the best. Thank you for making a difficult time a true celebration of life.”
