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.

“These people are a god sent! I found out that my little baby Gisele she was a cockapoo was battling with limes disease that affected her kidneys. We did the best we could to try to help her recover, but sadly, the disease took her. Creekside was so professional and compassionate. She passed away last night And we were able to get her remains cremated the next day. I had her remains the same day. I highly recommend Creekside for when this difficult time happens to you.”

“My dog passed away two nights ago. They are closed on Sundays. So I had to wait. I made an appointment for today to get her cremated. They are very kind and understanding. I have her ashes in a urn. They really went our of their way to make sure everything went smoothly and comfortably. I highly recommend coming here. The urn was nicely packaged and the bag is nice as well. Come here if you want people who understand what you are going through with a loss and comfort you.”

“Ive had all my pets cremated here and they always did well. Except today, I go to the office to pick up my dogs ashes and Ive had her a very long time she was part of our family and my best friend, I asked the gentleman to please not cremate her collar with her and because he was in a "Hurry" he stuck her in with her collar...so when I went to pick her up, the man said the guy was in a hurry and then showed me some burnt up dog tags that where left of my dear Bellah..that isn't how I wanted to remember her her and I'm not good at confrontation...I'm very upset this happened because I trusted them to take care of my Bellah she was my everything. This experience was awful!!!!!!”
