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
“Absolutely awful service! They returned my fiancé and my mother-in-laws son in a ziplock plastic bag, not the thick double ply bag no zip tie was used no label stating who was in the bag/urn. When we called them they denied doing him that way. We asked them how our loved one would be handled and they told us the proper way a cremation is suppose to take place, not the way our loved one was returned. They treat your loved one horrible, with no dignity or respect! They have zero over the phone professionalism, basically feed you lies to get your money and they will hang up on you and tell you they have no time for you! Look elsewhere when choosing a crematory for your loved one not MCM!”
— Brittany Wyrick
“I own and operate a funeral home in Red Lion, PA and recently worked with a family locally who had a loved one pass in TN. I was referred to the Music City Mortuary by the local ME in Tennessee. The professionalism over the phone/email, promptness with getting documents to me and expertise with the embalming is top notch. Anna was wonderful to work with - very kind and professional! If I am ever in need of assistance with another service out of state, I will most certainly be calling them again.”
— Katharine Wagner-Elfner
“Would not. Recommend! High volume Non. Personable service mainly contracted by. Funeral homes to handle their embalming, shipping, removals and cremations. Not a personalized Firm where you know your director and who is caring for your loved one ! Facility not in a very desirable area of Nashville! More like a warehouse in a commercial area near the cities railroad yard!”
