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.

“This establishment handled my mother’s cremation services with kindness. We picked up my mom’s ashes today; the lady helping us was caring and attentive. I’m not sure if it was Miss Laila or Miss Myriam but I appreciated her very much. Available parking is a bit of a concern, but we got through it alright. A tough experience losing my sweet Mama, but you made it a bit easier. Thank You.”
