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.

“I have used many, many (many) databases over the years with different companies. Without a doubt Passare is the smoothest, easiest, most user-focused interface I have encountered. The data revolves around people rather than a number assignment or contract reference. I can look up a decedent, easy-peasy. If someone from their family with a different surname calls, so long as they have been attached to the case I can look up by that name and it ties me to the decedent. Brilliant! I work at a desk and am not a Funeral Director so I cannot comment on that side of the system but I expect it is easy to use as the sections I work with.”

“Haskell Funeral Home was amazing with our loved one and our family. The professional staff had such compassion for us as we made the final decisions to honor our mom. So glad Christina was there to guide us through every detail. Thanks to Christina also for our mom looking absolutely beautiful after having some rough last days. We couldn't be more pleased with Christina and all her staff at Haskell Funeral Home. Most definitely recommend them.”
