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.
“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.

What Families Say
“Christopher Pendleton, Funeral Service Consultant lacks basic human compassion when meeting with the families to go Through the process as to what you do and do not want. It seems like if you don’t plan on spending tons of money and getting all the extras and using his guys, it hurts his feelings to the point he starts acting very rude and snotty with the grieving family that happened today as I had to walk out out of the funeral home and I pray the owners remedy this issue in an expedited manner. Very zesty, egotistical and lacks basic human compassion.”
— Lynnette Simmonds
