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.

“My father’s passing was the first immediate family member death I have had to directly deal with. I didn’t know where to start. Everyone I dealt with from Maryland Cremation Services was very kind, professional and understanding. They didn’t hesitate to answer all the questions I had and help us get through the process. My father was cremated on 12/26/25 and we were able to pick him up to bring him home for the final time yesterday. I can’t thank them enough for their assistance in carrying out my father’s final wish of cremation.”

“I've recently lost my dad. I'm the 4th child out of 5. I can't tell you how much myself & my family appreciates Maryland Cremation Services. The staff there are all so kind & professional. Wonderful people & place. This place will be on my recommendation for anyone who asks me. Thank you so much!”

“I was referred to this business from my friend whose mom died the day before my Dad in December. The staff were professional, attentive, thorough, and compassionate. It was also fantastic to not have to go through a funeral home and pay additional costs since going directly through Maryland Cremation cuts out the “middle man.” The value is outstanding and there are no hidden fees! I would specifically like to thank Brian, Rachel, and the lady who was there to give us the ashes (Chris?). I also spoke to the owner at one point and she, too, was great. I will be referring all I know who are seeking cremation services to this business.”
