“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.

What Families Say
“Beacon gave my grandfather the dignity in death that he had been denied in the final weeks of his life. Kirk and his people handled my needy, dysfunctional, forgetful family with incredible grace. He made the process of arranging my grandfather's funeral as easy as possible, and handled our very difficult situation exceptionally well. I will forever be grateful.”
