Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“Many thanks to Heritage for their patience in working through the hurdles of technology and the postal system as we processed paperwork for the cremation of our dear niece Aurora who had moved north and a long car ride away. I’m also impressed with Heritage’s offer of a grief counseling group contact, something I need even when I think I’m doing OK. The older I get, the more I value community of every kind. Thanks to Heritage for providing a supportive arm around my shoulders during this time of loss. Victoria H, 86, NW suburban Chicago”
— Victoria Hathaway
