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.
“Do you offer payment plans?”
Many funeral homes allow you to spread the cost over time. Ask about down payments, terms, and financing options.
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.

“From the planning time to my mother's passing, Schmidt and Bartelt Funeral Home in Mukwonago was top notch. They were very friendly and helpful. They walked us through the process since this was the first time we've been through this. Angie guided us through the process, made my mother beautiful in the casket, and was very reachable when we had questions. Mike and staff helped us through all the steps the day of the funeral, at the church, and afterwards. They were the perfect people during our time of need. It's good to know they were there for us. I highly recommend them!”

“Seven weeks ago dad died unexpectedly. Arrangements for mom 13 years ago was with Schmidt and Bartelt so they were contacted. Mike was compassionate, thoughtful, and went above and beyond with all the arrangements. With a final resting Military service up north Mike used contacts out of town and took added stress off the family. We feel like Mike is family after all he did, it wasn't just his job which we are truly grateful for. Dad got a remarkable send off. Thank you so much during this difficult time.”
— Linda Thornton
