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
“The staff at Woodlawn helped me with the various selections including selecting an appropriate graveside for my mother and took care of everything in one visit.”
— Janet Pickens
“The best moments in a memorial service are the short talks—when someone captures a telling detail that brings a lifetime to life. These gatherings pull together people who haven’t seen each other in years, but that doesn’t mean they leave any closer. And that’s fine—rituals stage a performance that lets us believe we’ll reconnect, if only by showing up in front of everyone. That’s not so bad. Btw, as you pull into the driveway, the place has the look of a theme park.”
— Krishin Asnani
“We have had multiple family members there the experience with my mom placement.Unfortunately was bad communication was terrible.The spelling of her name was terrible, very disappointed”
— Steve Norry
