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.

“If you need a service to handle the work that is heartbreaking just as you are grieving, I can not say enough about Tulip 🌷 They come after you leave and manage file all the necessary government paperwork, cremation and shipping the remains to any family member you choose. I set everything up in advance, had the card on file and when it’s over, you simply notify by Tulip 🌷 by pushing a button online. We were able to walk out that evening and relax together without anything more to do. And my dad is now safe with my sister in San Fransisco.”

“I found my self in need of someone to take care of my brother. I am in SC and he was in San Francisco. I found Tulip online and they met my needs. Even before I finished the online process a Tulip called and helped me complete the paper work. The whole process was quick, easy, and reasonably priced.”
