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 recently used Milwaukee Cremation after very careful research. They were extremely professional. Their communication was very prompt. They were friendly and handled the entire process in a clear, transparent manner. They did not use upsell tactics or any slimy sales tricks. I highly recommend them!”
— Michael Gorectke
“A sudden unexpected death of a loved one and it being impossible for the mother of the deceased to attend the funeral, made Milwaukee Cremation a excellent choice for our family. Everything is completed online! Mind you I am no young woman and needed assist with the process but once I understood it I was fine. The staff was kind, compassionate and understanding. The cost of the Cremation was very affordable for our limited budget with professionalism, compassion and quality. I recommend them!”
— Cocoa Berry
“This was a very pleasant experience. Everyone I spoke with were very helpful and compassionate, making the process very easy at a difficult time. If I had a question after normal business hours, I could call and receive a call back within a few minutes. Like they say in their commercials, the cremation was affordable and there was piece of mind that is was done with dignity and respect. I highly recommend working with Milwaukee Cremation.”
