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.

“I cannot say enough good things about these lovely people and their facility. These individuals truly knew their calling and they are the best in the business. From the home pickup (dealing with crying and grieving loved ones) to the service (which was positively beautiful), I cannot say enough good things about them. My husband and I have even said this is where we want to go when our time comes. I hope this business and these professionals know how truly appreciated they are for their kindness and guidance during one of the worst times of our lives. Thank you Cremation Services of East Alabama!”

“My review is for everyone out there who got to bury someone and they didn’t have a tap of insurance and you got to come up with some miracle money in days cause the hospital wouldn’t work one last miracle and keep talking about letting them go easy but ain’t go to come up with the money. This is the place to go and just trust me on this. Cause I am a real individual that just left the most peaceful kind people I have ever met in my life at this cremation service. Miguel is the best.”

“Amazing., simply amazing place. My mom always wanted to be cremated & the hospice nurse told us that these people were the nicest around & they really were. They didn't pressure us into anything we didn't ask for. They were very professional & answered all of our questions in a nice manner. They explained everything perfectly. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring & professional people. They do more then cremations also.”
