“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.

“My Uncle passed away from heart failure in San Fran. I am a New Yorker who didn't know San Fran's laws/rules on how to prepare for his funnel. Connie had helped me in multiple ways and well-prepared me before I flew to SF. I really appreciated her great advice. Thanks to her, the funnel was done smoothly and nicely.”

“Attended a service at the facility for a relative. The funeral director was good at handling the arrangement and memorials. The facilities were a reminders of a by-gone era but that made the services reflect that I am attending services for a passing of an era. I liked that it was located away from the downtown area but it was just a short ride via to get there via Muni’s 38-line. I would recommend for needed services.”
