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.

“Carmichael Funeral Homes is terrific to work with. Very thorough with details and options. Their Aftercare Call service (Alison Christiansen) was so helpful in advising all the loose ends and provided links and phone numbers for the respective agencies and services. At a time when one can be very overwhelmed they step and help navigate through the process. Many thanks to all!”

“Carmichael Funeral Home provided excellent service in caring for my husband’s body and commemorating his life. Darrell Owenby offered my sons and me personal and professional guidance as we planned his memorial service locally. Then Matthew transported my husband out of state and commemorated great respect at the gravesite.”
