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.

“When my father passed away unexpectedly, Bill Gallagher was my savior. He has been nothing but understanding and caring, and he helps in any way possible. He took care of everything for me so that I didn't have to feel any more stress than I already did. He is a wonderful person and I'm so glad that in a time like this, I had someone like him to work with. He is very professional and I can understand why the Gallagher Funeral Home has been in operation for as long as it has. They are great.”
