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.

“It’s been a few months since by Friend made his transition at 92 years old..He was such a blessing in our lives and I’ll be forever grateful to all the staff at Trident Society who answered my first call late at night, to the wonderful staff member who guided us through the process and arranged the viewing and remained with us as we said farewell to our loved one and then stayed in touch with me afterwards to give comfort as he was transferred to his final resting place..Then afterwards they called me regularly just to check on me and gave me additional information for upcoming times. My friend made a wise choice in choosing Trident Society..they are professional, kind, gracious, and sympathetic.. 🫶🏾🙏🏾”
