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

“Worked with Andrea on my father’s cremation, the whole experience was truly the most pleasant experience I could ask for. They picked my father up at the rehab center, the young man was professional and caring, and treated my father with dignity. The whole team was very kind and made the experience much easier then I expected. I would recommend them to all people considering a cremation service. All were professional and kind! Thank you all for everything!”

Advantage Funeral and Cremation on the Hilltop of Columbus Ohio can be there for you when there are no easy answers.

“With my Mom’s recent passing, I certainly appreciate the care and support my family received from Andrea, Hannah and staff at Schoedinger Hill Top Funeral Home. They spent the time we needed in helping us prepare my Mom’s funeral and cremation, they were wonderful to work with during these trying times. They have such a positive attitude and treated us like family. I am thankful we used Schoedinger and I highly recommend you consider them also. Brad W. Columbus, Ohio”
