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.

What Families Say
“Salt Lake City Cemetery is a beautiful and peaceful place with a deep sense of history. The grounds are expansive and carefully maintained, with wide paths, old trees, and stunning views of the Wasatch Mountains. It’s both a place of rest and reflection and a fascinating historical site — many early pioneers and prominent Utah figures are buried here. Walking through feels like stepping back in time, surrounded by the quiet beauty of nature and heritage. Whether you visit to pay respects, enjoy a peaceful stroll, or explore local history, the Salt Lake City Cemetery is truly special and worth experiencing.”

“This is a weird statement, but this is my favorite cemetery. I’ve taken youth groups here to find historical figures/church leaders and they have a blast. It’s even a nice place to go for a walk. You’ll even find deer and other wildlife there. Great views as well. It’s a great place to do some work with the FindAGrave app. Be careful if you go in the summer- bring lots of water, it gets hot and there are a lot of hills and inclines.”
— B.T. Mangus
“I was really excited to see all of the pictures and how much better things look. It has been a couple of years since we were there, and not one of our happiest times. I do remember some of the headstones of our prophets were leaning, and had been damaged. I couldn't understand this, especially considering how loved each of these men were and still are. I know Porter Rockwell's was in terrible shape and has been replaced, but this Cemetery holds a lot of history and memories for many, and should always be looked after and maintained to the highest standards. Sincerely; Darlene Pierce”
