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
“I have delayed writing this review because I fear I do not have adequate words to describe how beautifully each detail of my father’s funeral and burial was handled. Eric’s compassion, attention to detail, and gentle guidance turned the most painful experience of my life into a memory I will forever cherish. Not only did he expertly advise on and handle the major details, such as casket selection, but he also took a personal interest in ensuring the smallest touches were just right. From creating the slideshow to making sure the food in the family room was exactly what we wanted, he was a quiet, steady presence every step of the way. What meant the most, however, was how Eric ensured every aspect of the service reflected who my father was. Knowing my dad was a classic car buff, he brought out the funeral home’s vintage 1955 Cadillac hearse and matching family car for the processional—despite the cold and snowy weather. This incredibly thoughtful gesture honored my father’s passion and added a deeply personal touch to the day, making it all the more meaningful. In a time of overwhelming loss, Eric and his team provided more than just a service—they offered comfort, dignity, and care when we needed it most. For that, I am endlessly grateful.”
