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.

“My mom went home to be with the Lord on mother's day. It was very difficult for our family to loose our queen especially on this day but, Zapata Funeral home took care of my mom with velvet gloves. Karina made my mom look so beautiful no one could believe it! It really soothed our hearts in this painful time. Our family is forever grateful to Zapata and everyone who had a hand in seeing her off. You are all wonderful! Thank you again and God bless you all. 💖💐💐💐💐”
